In this talk, I shall present a relaxation formula and duality theory for the multi-marginal Coulomb cost that appears in optimal transport problems arising in Density Functional Theory. The related optimization problems involve probabilities on the entire space and, as minimizing sequences may lose mass at infinity, it is natural to expect relaxed solutions which…

Feasibility models are a powerful approach to many real-world problems where simply finding a point that comes close enough to meeting many, sometimes contradictory demands is enough. In this talk I will outline the theoretical foundations for the convergence analysis of fixed point iterations of expansive mappings, and show how this specializes to fundamental algorithms…

A hollow vortex is a region of constant pressure bounded by a vortex sheet and suspended inside a perfect fluid; we can think of it as a spinning bubble of air in water. In this talk, we present a general method for desingularizing non-degenerate steady point vortex configurations into collections of steady hollow vortices. The…

We will consider various models in hydrodynamic, including the 2d Navier-Stokes, Boussinesq equations, and a Brinkman-Forchheimer-Navier-Stokes equations in 3d. These models are driven by an external stochastic Brownian perturbation. We will implement space-time numerical schemes and prove their convergence. We will show some rates of convergence as well. Furthermore, we will show the difference between…
