We consider a simple stochastic $N$-particle system, already studied by the same authors in \cite{CPS21}, representing different populations of agents. Each agent has a label describing his state of health. We show rigorously that, in the…

We consider the 3D Landau equation for moderately soft potentials ($\gamma\in(-2,0)$ with the usual notation) as well as a stochastic system of $N$ particles approximating it. We first establish some strong/weak stability estimates for the…

In this work, we prove the well-posedness and propagation of chaos for a stochastic particle system in mean-field interaction under the assumption that the interacting kernel belongs to a suitable $L_t^q-L_x^p$ space. Contrary to the large…

We consider stochastic systems of interacting particles or agents, with dynamics determined by an interaction kernel which only depends on pairwise distances. We study the problem of inferring this interaction kernel from observations of…

The empirical measure of an interacting particle system is a purely atomic random probability measure. In the limit as the number of particles grows to infinity, we show for McKean-Vlasov systems with common noise that this measure becomes…
