The dynamics of an infinite system of point particles in $\mathbb{R}^d$, which hop and interact with each other, is described at both micro- and mesoscopic levels. The states of the system are probability measures on the space of…
We consider the one-dimensional motion of a particle randomly accelerated by Gaussian white noise on the line segment 0<x<1. The reflections of the particle from the boundaries at x=0 and 1 are inelastic, with coefficient of restitution r.…

We consider two models of deterministic active particles in an external potential. In the limit where the speed of a particle is fixed, both models coincide and can be formulated as a Hamiltonian system, but only if the potential is…
In the ballistic annihilation process, particles on the real line have independent speeds symmetrically distributed in $\{-1,0,+1\}$ and are annihilated by collisions. It is widely believed that there is a phase transition at $p=p_{\mathrm…

We consider a one dimension Kac model with conservation of energy and an exclusion rule: Fix a number of particles $n$, and an energy $E>0$. Let each of the particles have an energy $x_j \geq 0$, with $\sum_{j=1}^n x_j = E$. For some…
