arXiv:2607. 00586v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We present a simple, yet general approach to study the scaling properties as the dimensionality of Metropolised MCMC sampling algorithms increases.

We study the problem of sampling from target distributions whose potentials are simultaneously non-smooth, subject to superlinear gradient growth, and non-convex. We introduce the Subgradient Tamed Unadjusted Langevin Algorithm (SG-TULA), a discretisation of the Langevin diffusion that operates directly on subgradients, without relying on computationally demanding smoothing procedures.

arXiv:2606. 26881v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We introduce an accelerated Langevin-based sampling method that is based on two complementary devices: \emph{SamAdams} adaptive timestepping, which automatically shrinks the effective integration step in stiff regions of phase space using a relaxed stiffness monitor, and \emph{position-adaptive Langevin} (PAL) dynamics, which concentrates friction along the local force direction while preserving the canonical distribution as the exact invariant measure.

arXiv:2405. 15379v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In this paper, we study the problem of sampling from log-concave distributions supported on convex and compact sets, with a particular focus on the randomized midpoint discretization of both overdamped and kinetic Langevin diffusions in constrained domains.
