We propose and analyze an optimal mass transport method for a random genetic drift problem driven by a Moran process under weak-selection. The continuum limit, formulated as a reaction-advection-diffusion equation known as the Kimura equation, inherits degenerate diffusion from the discrete stochastic process that conveys to the blow-up into Dirac-delta singularities hence brings great challenges to both the analytical and numerical studies. The proposed numerical method can quantitatively capture to the fullest possible extent the development of Dirac-delta singularities for genetic segregation on one hand, and preserves several sets of biologically relevant and computationally favored properties of the random genetic drift on the other. Moreover, the numerical scheme exponentially converges to the unique numerical stationary state in time at a rate independent of the mesh size up to a mesh error. Numerical evidence is given to illustrate and support these properties, and to demonstrate the spatio-temporal dynamics of random generic drift.

We introduce a simple, accurate, and extremely efficient method for numerically solving the multi-marginal optimal transport (MMOT) problems arising in density functional theory. The method relies on (i) the sparsity of optimal plans [for $N$ margina
ls discretized by $ell$ gridpoints each, general Kantorovich plans require $ell^N$ gridpoints but the support of optimizers is of size $O(ellcdot N)$ [FV18]], (ii) the method of column generation (CG) from discrete optimization which to our knowledge has not hitherto been used in MMOT, and (iii) ideas from machine learning. The well-known bottleneck in CG consists in generating new candidate columns efficiently; we prove that in our context, finding the best new column is an NP-complete problem. To overcome this bottleneck we use a genetic learning method tailormade for MMOT in which the dual state within CG plays the role of an adversary, in loose similarity to Wasserstein GANs. On a sequence of benchmark problems with up to 120 gridpoints and up to 30 marginals, our method always found the exact optimizers. Moreover, empirically the number of computational steps needed to find them appears to scale only polynomially when both $N$ and $ell$ are simultaneously increased (while keeping their ratio fixed to mimic a thermodynamic limit of the particle system).
We are interested in numerical algorithms for computing the electrical field generated by a charge distribution localized on scale $ell$ in an infinite heterogeneous medium, in a situation where the medium is only known in a box of diameter $Lggell$
around the support of the charge. We propose a boundary condition that with overwhelming probability is (near) optimal with respect to scaling in terms of $ell$ and $L$, in the setting where the medium is a sample from a stationary ensemble with a finite range of dependence (set to be unity and with the assumption that $ell gg 1$). The boundary condition is motivated by quantitative stochastic homogenization that allows for a multipole expansion [BGO20]. This work extends [LO21] from two to three dimensions, and thus we need to take quadrupoles, next to dipoles, into account. This in turn relies on stochastic estimates of second-order, next to first-order, correctors. These estimates are provided for finite range ensembles under consideration, based on an extension of the semi-group approach of [GO15].
This paper is concerned with the time-dependent acoustic-elastic interaction problem associated with a bounded elastic body immersed in a homogeneous air or fluid above an unbounded rough surface. The well-posedness and stability of the problem are f
irst established by using the Laplace transform and the energy method. A perfectly matched layer (PML) is then introduced to truncate the interaction problem above a finite layer containing the elastic body, leading to a PML problem in a finite strip domain. We further establish the existence, uniqueness and stability estimate of solutions to the PML problem. Finally, we prove the exponential convergence of the PML problem in terms of the thickness and parameter of the PML layer, based on establishing an error estimate between the DtN operators of the original problem and the PML problem.
We investigate the problem of optimal transport in the so-called Kantorovich form, i.e. given two Radon measures on two compact sets, we seek an optimal transport plan which is another Radon measure on the product of the sets that has these two measu
res as marginals and minimizes a certain cost function. We consider quadratic regularization of the problem, which forces the optimal transport plan to be a square integrable function rather than a Radon measure. We derive the dual problem and show strong duality and existence of primal and dual solutions to the regularized problem. Then we derive two algorithms to solve the dual problem of the regularized problem: A Gauss-Seidel method and a semismooth quasi-Newton method and investigate both methods numerically. Our experiments show that the methods perform well even for small regularization parameters. Quadratic regularization is of interest since the resulting optimal transport plans are sparse, i.e. they have a small support (which is not the case for the often used entropic regularization where the optimal transport plan always has full measure).
We develop a general solution for the Fokker-Planck (Kolomogorov) equation representing the diffusion limit of the Wright-Fisher model of random genetic drift for an arbitrary number of alleles at a single locus. From this solution, we can readily de
duce information about the evolution of a Wright-Fisher population.
