Model reduction methods for bilinear control systems are compared by means of practical examples of Liouville-von Neumann and Fokker--Planck type. Methods based on balancing generalized system Gramians and on minimizing an H2-type cost functional are considered. The focus is on the numerical implementation and a thorough comparison of the methods. Structure and stability preservation are investigated, and the competitiveness of the approaches is shown for practically relevant, large-scale examples.

We propose a new semi-discretization scheme to approximate nonlinear Fokker-Planck equations, by exploiting the gradient flow structures with respect to the 2-Wasserstein metric. We discretize the underlying state by a finite graph and define a discrete 2-Wasserstein metric. Based on such metric, we introduce a dynamical system, which is a gradient flow of the discrete free energy. We prove that the new scheme maintains dissipativity of the free energy and converges to a discrete Gibbs measure at exponential (dissipation) rate. We exhibit these properties on several numerical examples.

In this work we consider an extension of a recently proposed structure preserving numerical scheme for nonlinear Fokker-Planck-type equations to the case of nonconstant full diffusion matrices. While in existing works the schemes are formulated in a one-dimensional setting, here we consider exclusively the two-dimensional case. We prove that the proposed schemes preserve fundamental structural properties like nonnegativity of the solution without restriction on the size of the mesh and entropy dissipation. Moreover, all the methods presented here are at least second order accurate in the transient regimes and arbitrarily high order for large times in the hypothesis in which the flux vanishes at the stationary state. Suitable numerical tests will confirm the theoretical results.

We develop a monotone finite volume method for the time fractional Fokker-Planck equations and theoretically prove its unconditional stability. We show that the convergence rate of this method is order 1 in space and if the space grid becomes sufficiently fine, the convergence rate can be improved to order 2. Numerical results are given to support our theoretical findings. One characteristic of our method is that it has monotone property such that it keeps the nonnegativity of some physical variables such as density, concentration, etc.
Given an ensemble of systems in an unknown state, as well as an observable $hat A$ and a physical apparatus which performs a measurement of $hat A$ on the ensemble, whose detailed working is unknown (black box), how can one test whether the Luders or von Neumann reduction rule applies?
Error estimates are rigorously derived for a semi-discrete version of a conservative spectral method for approximating the space-homogeneous Fokker-Planck-Landau (FPL) equation associated to hard potentials. The analysis included shows that the semi-discrete problem has a unique solution with bounded moments. In addition, the derivatives of such a solution up to any order also remain bounded in $L^2$ spaces globally time, under certain conditions. These estimates, combined with control of the spectral projection, are enough to obtain error estimates to the analytical solution and convergence to equilibrium states. It should be noted that this is the first time that an error estimate has been produced for any numerical method which approximates FPL equations associated to any range of potentials.
