In this paper, we present a rigorous derivation of the mean-field limit for a moderately interacting particle system in $\R^d$ $(d\geq 2)$. For stochastic initial data, we demonstrate that the solution to the interacting particle model,…

We study a pressureless Euler system with a nonlinear density-dependent alignment term, originating in the Cucker-Smale swarming models. The alignment term is dissipative in the sense that it tends to equilibrate the velocities. Its density…
