We consider systems of n particles that move with constant velocity between collisions. Their total momentum but not necessarily their kinetic energy is preserved at collisions. As there are no further constraints, these systems are…
We consider the dynamics of finite systems of point masses which move along the real line. We suppose the particles interact pairwise and undergo perfectly inelastic collisions when they collide. In particular, once particles collide, they…
We prove H\"{o}lder regularity for the trajectories of an interacting particle system. The particle velocities are given by the nonlocal and singular interactions with the other particles. Particle collisions occur in finite time. Prior to…
We introduce the notion of a "rigid" quantum system as a system with constant relative positions of its nuclei and constant relative distribution of the electrons with respect to the nuclei. In accordance with this definition, a molecule…
In this work we study a kinetic model of active particles with delayed dynamics, and its limit when the number of particles goes to infinity. This limit turns out to be related to delayed differential equations with random initial…
Analyzing the dynamics of open quantum systems has a long history in mathematics and physics. Depending on the system at hand, basic physical phenomena that one would like to explain are, for example, convergence to equilibrium, the…
A rotating continuum of particles attracted to each other by gravity may be modeled by the Euler-Poisson system. The existence of solutions is a very classical problem. Here it is proven that a curve of solutions exists, parametrized by the…
We consider the dynamics of a collection of particles that interact pairwise and are restricted to move along the real line. Moreover, we focus on the situation in which particles undergo perfectly inelastic collisions when they collide.…
At time zero, there are $N$ identical point particles in the line (1D) which are characterized by their positions and velocities. Both values are given randomly and independently from each other, with arbitrary probability densities. Each…
We study equilibrium configurations of infinitely many identical particles on the real line or finitely many particles on the circle, such that the (repelling) force they exert on each other depends only on their distance. The main question…
The dynamics of particles moving in a medium defined by its relativistically invariant stochastic properties is investigated. For this aim, the force exerted on the particles by the medium is defined by a stationary random variable as a…
Three paradigms commonly used in classical, pre-quantum physics to describe particles (that is: the material point, the test-particle and the diluted particle (droplet model)) can be identified as limit-cases of a quantum regime in which…
We study the stability in finite times of the trajectories of interacting particles. Our aim is to show that in average and uniformly in the number of particles, two trajectories whose initial positions in phase space are close, remain…
We investigate regular configurations of a small number of particles settling under gravity in a viscous fluid. The particles do not touch each other and can move relative to each other. The dynamics is analyzed in the point-particle…
Systems of classical continuous particles in the grand canonical ensemble interacting through purely attractive, yet stable, interactions are defined. By a lattice approximation, FKG ferromagnetic inequalities are shown to hold for such…
We consider the dynamics of point particles which are confined to a bounded, possibly nonconvex domain $\Omega$. Collisions with the boundary are described as purely elastic collisions. This turns the description of the particle dynamics…
Since the particles such as molecules, atoms and nuclei are composite particles, it is important to recognize that physics must be invariant for the composite particles and their constituent particles, this requirement is called particle…
Dynamics of systems of structured particles consisting of potentially interacting material points is considered in the framework of classical mechanics. Equations of interaction and motion of structured particles have been derived. The…
A discrete system constituted of particles interacting by means of a centroid-based law is numerically investigated. The elements of the system move in the plane, and the range of the interaction can be varied from a more local form…
We consider a model system of persistent random walkers that can jam, pass through each other or jump apart (recoil) on contact. In a continuum limit, where particle motion between stochastic changes in direction becomes deterministic, we…
