We study the large-time behavior of continuum alignment dynamics based on Cucker-Smale (CS)-type interactions which involve short-range kernels, that is, communication kernels with support much smaller than the diameter of the crowd. We…

We provide a bird's eye view on developments in analyzing the long time, large crowd behavior of Cucker-Smale alignment dynamics. We consider a class of (fully-)discrete models, paying particular attention to general alignment protocols in…

We study a variant of the Cucker-Smale model where information between agents propagates with a finite speed $\mathfrak{c}>0$. This leads to a system of functional differential equations with state-dependent delay. We prove that, if…

In this chapter, we present the Cucker-Smale type flocking models, and discuss their mathematical structures and flocking theorems in terms of coupling strength, interaction topologies and initial data. In 2007, two mathematicians Felipe…

In this paper, we deal with a Cucker-Smale model with time-dependent time delay and communication failures. Namely, we investigate the situation in which the agents involved in a flocking process can possibly suspend the exchange of…

We study a new flocking model which has the versatility to capture the physically realistic qualitative behavior of the Motsch-Tadmor model, while also retaining the entropy law, which lends to a similar 1D global well-posedness analysis to…

In this paper, we investigate a Cucker-Smale flocking model with varying time delay. We establish exponential asymptotic flocking without requiring smallness assumptions on the time delay size and the monotonicity of the influence function.

The hydrodynamic limit of a kinetic Cucker-Smale model is investigated. In addition to the free-transport of individuals and the Cucker-Smale alignment operator, the model under consideration includes a strong local alignment term. This…

Collective behaviors such as swarming and flocking emerge from simple, decentralized interactions in biological systems. Existing models, such as Vicsek and Cucker-Smale, lack collision avoidance, whereas the Olfati-Saber model imposes…

We analyse the asymptotic behavior for kinetic models describing the collective behavior of animal populations. We focus on models for self-propelled individuals, whose velocity relaxes toward the mean orientation of the neighbors. The…
