“…Unadjusted sampling approximations can be controlled by solving a trade-off between running the chain long enough to get close enough to the stationary measure, while choosing a time-step small enough in order to control the discretization error. Solving this tradeoff with respect to log-concave target densities Π has received a lot of attention lately; see [22,23,28,29,30,41] for the overdamped Langevin diffusion, [20,24,25,47,56,69] for the Langevin diffusion, and [8,12,14,19,48,49,50] for Hamiltonian dynamics. One limitation of unadjusted samplers is that whenever the discretization error scales polynomially with the time-step, the number of gradient evaluations required to reach a given precision will increase polynomially with the precision level at best.…”
