Matthias Heymann coauthored the geometric minimum action with Eric Vanden-Eijnden. Their algorithm minimizes a geometric form of the Freidlin--Wentzell action to calculate rare transition paths and the quasipotential. Examples include a bistable stochastic differential equation and a genetic-switch Markov jump process, showing how one variational principle applies to different stochastic models.[ref]
