Discretized Langevin diffusions are efficient Monte Carlo methods for sampling from high dimensional target densities that are log-Lipschitz-smooth and (strongly) log-concave. In particular, the Euclidean Langevin Monte Carlo sampling algorithm has received much attention lately, leading to a detailed understanding of its non-asymptotic converge...
Day 4: Transport theory leads to a natural metric of the space of probability densities that in turn leads to a natural Riemannian structure. We will describe some of the basic geometric concepts such as Ricci curvature, and see how this methodology allows one to define a notion of curvature on rather general metric spaces. We will describe appl...

Wastelands and Wilderness. The central component of Peter Galison's work involves the exploration of twentieth century microphysics (atomic, nuclear, and particle physics). In particular, he examines physics as a closely interconnected set of scientific subcultures: experimenters, instrument makers, and theorists. In this talk he discusses the s...
