The Smoluchowski-Kramers Approximation for Stochastic Differential Equations with Arbitrary State Dependent Friction
In this dissertation a class of stochastic differential equations is considered in the limit as mass tends to zero, called the Smoluchowski-Kramers limit. The Smoluchowski-Kramers approximation is useful in simplifying the dynamics of a system. For example, the problems of calculating of rates of c...
