Spectral Gap of Replica Exchange Langevin Diffusion on Mi...
Jing Dong, Xin T. Tong · 2020-06-30 · via math.ST updates on arXiv.org

Langevin diffusion (LD) is one of the main workhorses for sampling problems. However, its convergence rate can be significantly reduced if the target distribution is a mixture of multiple densities, especially when each component concentrates around a different mode. Replica exchange Langevin diffusion (ReLD) is a sampling method that can circumvent this issue. In particular, ReLD adds another LD sampling a high-temperature version of the target density, and exchange the locations of two LDs according to a Metropolis-Hasting type of law. This approach can be further extended to multiple replica exchange Langevin diffusion (mReLD), where $K$ additional LDs are added to sample distributions at different temperatures and exchanges take place between neighboring-temperature processes. While ReLD and mReLD have been used extensively in statistical physics, molecular dynamics, and other applications, there is little existing analysis on its convergence rate and choices of temperatures. This paper closes these gaps assuming the target distribution is a mixture of log-concave densities. We show ReLD can obtain constant or even better convergence rates even when the density components of the mixture concentrate around isolated modes. We also show using mReLD with $K$ additional LDs can achieve the same result while the exchange frequency only needs to be $(1/K)$-th power of the one in ReLD.
