Abstract: The Bures-Wasserstein geometry of positive definite matrices is closely related to the optimal transport of Gaussian measures and has several applications such as in optimization and physics. We present a detailed formula of the Brownian motion under such geometry, which has an extra mean curvature drift term and is reminiscent of well-studied stochastic processes such as Dyson's Brownian, suggesting broader framework of matrix geometry for these processes. Moreover, we investigate ideas utilizing the mean curvature drift term to design a control system.
