New math paper details optimization on Wasserstein space

Researchers have developed new methods for optimizing functionals on Wasserstein spaces, a mathematical concept crucial for understanding probability distributions. The work establishes linear convergence for proximal descent schemes, relaxing previous requirements for geodesic convexity. This advancement utilizes a uniform logarithmic Sobolev inequality and an entropy "sandwich" lemma, extending prior research and addressing challenges related to the definition of relative Fisher information within the scheme.

    Linear convergence of proximal descent schemes on the Wasserstein space

    arXiv:2411.15067v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We investigate proximal descent methods, inspired by the minimizing movement scheme introduced by Jordan, Kinderlehrer and Otto, for optimizing entropy-regularized functionals on the Wasserstein space. We establish linear …
