Mean field limit for the one dimensional Vlasov-Poisson equation

Maxime Hauray

Séminaire Laurent Schwartz — EDP et applications

We consider systems of N particles in dimension one, driven by pair Coulombian or gravitational interactions. When the number of particles goes to infinity in the so called mean field scaling, we formally expect convergence towards the Vlasov-Poisson equation. Actually a rigorous proof of that convergence was given by Trocheris in [Tro86]. Here we shall give a simpler proof of this result, and explain why it implies the so-called “Propagation of molecular chaos”. More precisely, both results will...

Propagation of chaos for the 2D viscous vortex model

Nicolas FournierMaxime HaurayStéphane Mischler — 2014

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We consider a stochastic system of N 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...
