About a Variant of the Vlasov equation, dubbed “Vlasov-Dirac-Benney Equation"
This is a report on project initiated with Anne Nouri [3], presently in progress, with the collaboration of Nicolas Besse [2] ([2] is mainly the material of this report) . It concerns a version of the Vlasov equation where the self interacting potential is replaced by a Dirac mass. Emphasis is put on the relations between the linearized version, the full non linear problem and also on natural connections with several other equations of mathematical physic.
