This paper concerns the inverse scattering problem of a topologically non-trivial waveguide separating two-dimensional topological insulators. We consider the specific model of a Dirac system. We show that a short-range perturbation can be fully reconstructed from scattering data in a linearized setting and in a finite-dimensional setting under a smallness constraint. We also provide a stability result in appropriate topologies. We then solve the problem numerically by means of a standard adjoint method and illustrate our theoretical findings with several numerical simulations.

We present an estimate of the Wasserstein distance between the data distribution and the generation of score-based generative models. The sampling complexity with respect to dimension is $\mathcal{O}(\sqrt{d})$, with a logarithmic constant. In the analysis, we assume a Gaussian-type tail behavior of the data distribution and an $ε$-accurate approximation of the score. Such a Gaussian tail assumption is general, as it accommodates a practical target - the distribution from early stopping techniques with bounded support. The crux of the analysis lies in the global Lipschitz bound of the score, which is shown from the Gaussian tail assumption by a dimension-independent estimate of the heat kernel. Consequently, our complexity bound scales linearly (up to a logarithmic constant) with the square root of the trace of the covariance operator, which relates to the invariant distribution of the forward process.
