We study the rate of convergence to equilibrium of the solutions to Fokker–Planck type equations with linear drift by means of Cramér and Energy distances, which have been recently widely used in problems related to AI, in particular for tasks related to machine learning. In all cases in which the Fokker–Planck type equations can be treated through these distances, it is shown that the rate of decay is improved with respect to known results which are based on the decay of relative entropy.

Abstract

We study the rate of convergence to equilibrium of the solutions to Fokker–Planck type equations with linear drift by means of Cramér and Energy distances, which have been recently widely used in problems related to AI, in particular for tasks related to machine learning. In all cases in which the Fokker–Planck type equations can be treated through these distances, it is shown that the rate of decay is improved with respect to known results which are based on the decay of relative entropy.
