arXiv:2503. 14549v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: How can a cheap but biased sequential, finite-horizon sampler over a discrete space be corrected so that its terminal output follows a prescribed Gibbs distribution?

arXiv:2607. 15682v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Sampling from an unnormalized Boltzmann density requires proposals that move probability mass globally while retaining enough path-probability information for statistical correction.

arXiv:2606. 04804v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Generative models -- diffusion and flow matching -- are increasingly used to solve partial differential equation (PDE) inverse problems, enforcing the governing physics as a \emph{hard constraint} (via projection or guidance) and reporting the resulting samples as a Bayesian posterior with calibrated uncertainty.

Generative models -- diffusion and flow matching -- are increasingly used to solve partial differential equation (PDE) inverse problems, enforcing the governing physics as a \emph{hard constraint} (via projection or guidance) and reporting the resulting samples as a Bayesian posterior with calibrated uncertainty. We show that this widely adopted recipe samples the wrong distribution.
