We consider the linear Wigner-Fokker-Planck equation subject to confining potentials which are smooth perturbations of the harmonic oscillator potential. For a certain class of perturbations we prove that the equation admits a unique…

Many physical, biological or social systems are governed by history-dependent dynamics or are composed of strongly interacting units, showing an extreme diversity of microscopic behaviour. Macroscopically, however, they can be efficiently…
