We study the hydrodynamic limit for three gradient spin models: generalized Kipnis-Marchioro-Presutti (KMP), its discrete version and a family of harmonic models, under symmetric and nearest-neighbor interactions. These three models share…
Hydrodynamic theories offer successful approaches that are capable of simulating the otherwise difficult-to-compute dynamics of quantum many-body systems. In this work we derive, within the positive-P phase-space formalism, a new stochastic…
Stokesian Dynamics (SD) is a numerical framework used for simulating hydrodynamic interactions in particle suspensions at low Reynolds number. It combines far-field approximations with near-field lubrication corrections, offering a balance…
Collective motion is often modeled within the framework of active fluids, where the constituent active particles, when interactions with other particles are switched off, perform normal diffusion at long times. However, in biology,…
