Generalized Stochastic Fokker-Planck Equations
We consider a system of Brownian particles with long-range interactions. We go beyond the mean field approximation and take fluctuations into account. We introduce a new class of stochastic Fokker-Planck equations associated with a generalized thermodynamical formalism. Generalized thermodynamics arises in the case of complex systems experiencing small-scale constraints. In the limit of short-r...
متن کاملPhi-entropy inequalities and Fokker-Planck equations
We present new Φ-entropy inequalities for diffusion semigroups under the curvature-dimension criterion. They include the isoperimetric function of the Gaussian measure. Applications to the long time behaviour of solutions to Fokker-Planck equations are given.
متن کاملA Fully Discrete Variational Scheme for Solving Nonlinear Fokker-Planck Equations in Multiple Space Dimensions
We introduce a novel spatio-temporal discretization for nonlinear Fokker-Planck equations on the multi-dimensional unit cube. This discretization is based on two structural properties of these equations: the first is the representation as a gradient flow of an entropy functional in the L-Wasserstein metric, the second is the Lagrangian nature, meaning that solutions can be written as the push f...
متن کاملRandom Walks Associated with Nonlinear Fokker-Planck Equations
A nonlinear random walk related to the porous medium equation (nonlinear Fokker–Planck equation) is investigated. This random walk is such that when the number of steps is sufficiently large, the probability of finding the walker in a certain position after taking a determined number of steps approximates to a q-Gaussian distribution (Gq,β(x) ∝ [1− (1− q)βx2]1/(1−q)), which is a solution of the...
متن کاملSpectral Galerkin Approximation of Fokker–planck Equations with Unbounded Drift
This paper is concerned with the analysis and implementation of spectral Galerkin methods for a class of Fokker–Planck equations that arises from the kinetic theory of dilute polymers. A relevant feature of the class of equations under consideration from the viewpoint of mathematical analysis and numerical approximation is the presence of an unbounded drift coefficient, involving a smooth conve...
