On the existence and the applications of modified equations for stochastic differential equations

KC Zygalakis�- SIAM Journal on Scientific Computing, 2011 - SIAM
In this paper we describe a general framework for deriving modified equations for stochastic
differential equations (SDEs) with respect to weak convergence. Modified equations are …

The connections between Lyapunov functions for some optimization algorithms and differential equations

JM Sanz Serna, KC Zygalakis�- SIAM Journal on Numerical Analysis, 2021 - SIAM
In this manuscript we study the properties of a family of a second-order differential equations
with damping, its discretizations, and their connections with accelerated optimization …

Exploration of the (non-) asymptotic bias and variance of stochastic gradient Langevin dynamics

SJ Vollmer, KC Zygalakis, YW Teh�- Journal of Machine Learning Research, 2016 - jmlr.org
Applying standard Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithms to large data sets is
computationally infeasible. The recently proposed stochastic gradient Langevin dynamics (SGLD) …

Wasserstein distance estimates for the distributions of numerical approximations to ergodic stochastic differential equations

JM Sanz-Serna, KC Zygalakis�- Journal of Machine Learning Research, 2021 - jmlr.org
We present a framework that allows for the non-asymptotic study of the 2-Wasserstein distance
between the invariant distribution of an ergodic stochastic differential equation and the …

Analysis of Brownian dynamics simulations of reversible bimolecular reactions

J Lipkov�, KC Zygalakis, SJ Chapman, R Erban�- SIAM Journal on Applied�…, 2011 - SIAM
A class of Brownian dynamics algorithms for stochastic reaction-diffusion models which
include reversible bimolecular reactions is presented and analyzed. The method is a …

High order numerical approximation of the invariant measure of ergodic SDEs

A Abdulle, G Vilmart, KC Zygalakis�- SIAM Journal on Numerical Analysis, 2014 - SIAM
We introduce new sufficient conditions for a numerical method to approximate with high order
of accuracy the invariant measure of an ergodic system of stochastic differential equations, …

Accelerating proximal Markov chain Monte Carlo by using an explicit stabilized method

M Pereyra, LV Mieles, KC Zygalakis�- SIAM Journal on Imaging Sciences, 2020 - SIAM
We present a highly efficient proximal Markov chain Monte Carlo methodology to perform
Bayesian computation in imaging problems. Similarly to previous proximal Monte Carlo …

Accuracy and stability of the continuous-time 3DVAR filter for the Navier–Stokes equation

D Bl�mker, K Law, AM Stuart, KC Zygalakis�- Nonlinearity, 2013 - iopscience.iop.org
The 3DVAR filter is prototypical of methods used to combine observed data with a dynamical
system, online, in order to improve estimation of the state of the system. Such methods are …

Uncertainty quantification in graph-based classification of high dimensional data

AL Bertozzi, X Luo, AM Stuart, KC Zygalakis�- SIAM/ASA Journal on�…, 2018 - SIAM
Classification of high dimensional data finds wide-ranging applications. In many of these
applications equipping the resulting classification with a measure of uncertainty may be as …

High weak order methods for stochastic differential equations based on modified equations

A Abdulle, D Cohen, G Vilmart, KC Zygalakis�- SIAM Journal on Scientific�…, 2012 - SIAM
Inspired by recent advances in the theory of modified differential equations, we propose a
new methodology for constructing numerical integrators with high weak order for the time …
