We prove global stability results of renormalized solutions for the initial boundary value problem associated to some kinetic equations, from which existence results classically follow. The (possibly nonlinear) boundary conditions are completely or partially diffuse, which includes the so-called Maxwell boundary conditions, and we prove that it is realized (it is not only a boundary inequality condition as it has been established in previous works). We are able to deal with Boltzmann, Vlasov-Poisson...
Dans ces notes nous exposons quelques résultats mathématiques classiques et nouveaux concernant les “limites de champ moyen" en théorie cinétique des gaz établis dans [17, 16, 15, 10]. Rappelons qu’établir une “limite de champ moyen" consiste à obtenir un modèle sur la densité statistique de particules en partant d’une famille de modèles décrivant un système composé de particules et en passant à la limite lorsque tend vers l’infini.
In this note I present the main results about the quantitative and qualitative propagation of chaos for the Boltzmann-Kac system obtained in collaboration with C. Mouhot in [33] which gives a possible answer to some questions formulated by Kac in [25]. We also present some related recent results about Kac’s chaos and Kac’s program obtained in [34, 23, 13] by K. Carrapatoso, M. Hauray, C. Mouhot, B. Wennberg and myself.
We consider a stochastic system of particles, usually called vortices in that setting, approximating the 2D Navier-Stokes equation written in vorticity. Assuming that the initial distribution of the position and circulation of the vortices has finite (partial) entropy and a finite moment of positive order, we show that the empirical measure of the particle system converges in law to the unique (under suitable a priori estimates) solution of the 2D Navier-Stokes equation. We actually prove a slightly...
The entropy of an ideal gas, both in the case of classical and quantum particles, is maximised when the number particle density, linear momentum and energy are fixed. The dispersion law energy to momentum is chosen as linear or quadratic, corresponding to non-relativistic or relativistic behaviour.
