Mean-Field Stochastic PDEs: Well-posedness and Quantitative Dimension-Free Propagation of Chaos

Abstract

This work investigates the mean-field stochastic PDEs involving a class of pseudo-monotone kernels. We first study the well-posedness -- in both the strong and weak sense -- within the variational framework by introducing a notion of measure-dependent pseudo-monotone operators, which generalizes the classical framework due to Br\'{e}zis. Furthermore, we establish the quantitative dimension-free propagation of chaos within a $p$-uniformly convex Banach space for general infinite-dimensional weakly interacting systems, obtaining convergence rates that are near-optimal in a suitable sense. Our results reveal a new insight: the convergence rate of the mean-field limit is intrinsically governed by the geometry of the underlying solution space, specifically its modulus of convexity. As applications, we study several finite- and infinite-dimensional interacting particle systems arising in machine learning and fluid mechanics, including stochastic Stein variational gradient descent, mean-field Allen-Cahn equations, and Lagrangian-averaged Burgers equations.

Sharp propagation of chaos for mean-field backward stochastic differential equations

We study propagation of chaos for decoupled mean-field forward-backward stochastic differential equations whose generators depend on the empirical laws of the forward states, backward values and diagonal martingale integrands. Under monotonicity and Lipschitz assumptions, synchronous coupling gives quantitative estimat...

Spectral gap for the three-dimensional damped cubic wave equation with degenerate noise

We establish a weighted Wasserstein spectral gap for the three-dimensional damped cubic wave equation with genuinely finite rank Brownian forcing. Under a saturation condition, the gap holds with respect to the negative phase topology $\mathcal E_s=H^{-s}\times H^{-1-s}$ for every $0<s<1/2$, from which we deduce unique...

A Fully Discrete Local Discontinuous Galerkin Method for Quasilinear Stochastic Convection-Diffusion-Type Equations

In this paper, we develop and analyze a fully discrete local discontinuous Galerkin (LDG) method with IMEX-Euler time discretization for a class of multi-dimensional quasilinear stochastic convection-diffusion-type equations driven by multiplicative $\mathcal Q$-Wiener noise. The leading diffusion matrix may depend on...

Principal eigenvalues of nonlocal operators with advection: sharp scaling limits and spectral phase transitions

We consider generalized principal eigenvalues of one-dimensional nonlocal dispersal operators with a drift of fixed sign. A principal difficulty in this non-self-adjoint setting is the absence of a variational characterization of the principal value. In the symmetric drift-free problem, the critical nonlocal-to-local l...

We establish the existence and uniqueness of solutions to a $(1+1)$-dimensional fractional stochastic Burgers-type equation featuring a Caputo fractional time derivative, a fractional Laplacian, and space-time white noise forcing modified by a Riemann-Liouville fractional integral. From a physical perspective, equation...

Uniform in time propagation of chaos for noisy mean-field coupled maps

We study discrete-time $N$-dimensional mean-field systems on the torus subject to additive noise whose probability density is bounded away from zero. Given a Lipschitz one-particle map and interaction term, we prove that, if the lower bound on the noise density is sufficiently large, the $N$-dimensional transfer operat...
