This survey explores the development of adjoint Monte Carlo methods for solving optimization problems governed by kinetic equations, a common challenge in areas such as plasma control and device design. These optimization problems are particularly demanding due to the high dimensionality of the phase space and the randomness in evaluating the objective

Multilevel Monte Carlo Methods [PDF]
We study Monte Carlo approximations to high dimensional parameter dependent integrals. We survey the multilevel variance reduction technique introduced by the author in [4] and present extensions and new developments of it. The tools needed for the convergence analysis of vector-valued Monte Carlo methods are discussed, as well.

We investigate whether Montessori and traditional schooling systems shape the developmental trajectory of large‐scale brain dynamics in different ways. We quantify the arrow of time (“non‐reversibility”) in neural activity during resting state and movie‐watching, revealing distinct maturational patterns.

Monte Carlo Simulations for Real Estate Valuation [PDF]
We use the Adjusted Present Value (APV) method with Monte Carlo simulations for real estate valuation purposes. Monte Carlo simulations make it possible to incorporate the uncertainty of valuation parameters, in particular of future cash flows, of ...

Short‐range order in 2D transition metal dichalcogenides is revealed as a new design paradigm. Driven by chemical affinity and atomic size, it governs properties across scales. Weak ordering tunes site‐resolved magnetism and d‐band centers, while strong ordering eliminates gap states to open band gaps.

Markov Chain Monte Carlo Technology [PDF]
In the past fifteen years computational statistics has been enriched by a powerful, somewhat abstract method of generating variates from a target probability distribution that is based on Markov chains whose stationary distribution is the probability ...

Diverse Landscape of Tunable Magnetic, Topological, and Ferroelectric States in 2D Ti3Se3Te2
Ti3Se3Te2 emerges as a multifunctional 2D van der Waals platform. The monolayer is a dynamically stable ferromagnetic quantum anomalous Hall insulator. In bilayers, two stacking configurations yield distinct phases: AA‐stacking hosts an altermagnetic quantum spin Hall insulator, while AA′‐stacking exhibits three‐state in‐plane ferroelectricity ...

A methodological framework for Monte Carlo probabilistic inference for diffusion processes [PDF]
The methodological framework developed and reviewed in this article concerns the unbiased Monte Carlo estimation of the transition density of a diffusion process, and the exact simulation of diffusion processes.

Superatom Distortion Induces Triferroicity and Spin Splitting in Two‐Dimensional Antiferromagnets
The incorporation of superatoms into a 2D square lattice induces symmetry breaking, thereby enabling concurrent coupling among magnetism, ferroelectricity, and ferroelasticity. This strategy achieves triferroic behavior—characterized by spin‐split antiferromagnetic ground states—and offers a viable pathway toward energy‐efficient spintronic devices ...

Inspired by natural amino acid polymer‐melanin systems, this study strategically incorporated tellurocysteine to develop advanced radiation‐shielding materials. This approach transformed the primary interaction mechanism between melanin‐based materials and incident photons from Compton scattering to the photoelectric effect. Tellurocysteine‐polymerized
