We study global convergence guarantees of third-order Langevin dynamics for non-convex optimization via simulated annealing with fixed friction and decreasing noise. An explicit three-block distorted entropy transfers dissipation from the noisy auxiliary variable to the full state. Under dissipativity, regularity, and...

We study the underdamped (kinetic) Langevin dynamics confined to a bounded convex domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ by specular reflection of the velocity at the boundary. This process is the natural momentum-based analogue of the normally reflected overdamped Langevin diffusion, and it is used in practice for constra...
An explicit quantitative contraction rate is established for HFHR dynamics under a position Poincar\'e inequality, weighted Hessian and Laplacian bounds, and a compact Sobolev embedding, where the potential function is not necessarily convex.
