Reflected Schrödinger Bridge: Density Control with Path Constraints
How to steer a given joint state probability density function to another over finite horizon subject to a controlled stochastic dynamics with hard state (sample path) constraints? In applications, state constraints may encode safety requirements such as obstacle avoidance. In this paper, we perform the feedback synthesis for minimum control effort density steering (a.k.a. Schr\"{o}dinger bridge) problem subject to state constraints. We extend the theory of Schr\"{o}dinger bridges to account the reflecting boundary conditions for the sample paths, and provide a computational framework building on our previous work on proximal recursions, to solve the same.

Nonlinear Non-Gaussian Density Steering with Input and Noise Channel Mismatch: Sinkhorn with Memory for Solving the Control-affine Schrödinger Bridge Problem
Solutions to the Schrödinger bridge problem and its generalizations yield feedback control policies for optimal density steering over a controlled diffusion. To numerically compute the same, the dynamic Sinkhorn recursio…
On the Contraction Coefficient of the Schrödinger Bridge for Stochastic Linear Systems
Schr\"{o}dinger bridge is a stochastic optimal control problem to steer a given initial state density to another, subject to controlled diffusion and deadline constraints. A popular method to numerically solve the Schr\"…
Schrödinger bridge problem via empirical risk minimization
We study the Schrödinger bridge problem when the endpoint distributions are available only through samples. Classical computational approaches estimate Schrödinger potentials via Sinkhorn iterations on empirical measures…
Lifted Schrödinger Bridges for Gaussian Mixture Endpoints: Projection Gaps and Path-Space Obstructions
We study stochastic density control between Gaussian-mixture endpoint distributions under Brownian prior dynamics. Since the direct Schrödinger bridge between Gaussian mixtures is generally not available in closed form, …
Mutual Information Optimal Density Control of Linear Systems and Generalized Schrödinger Bridges with Reference Refinement
We consider a mutual information (MI) regularized version of optimal density control of a discrete-time linear system. MI optimal control has been proposed as an extension of maximum entropy optimal control to trade off …
