This paper provides a precise sense in which the time t map for the Euler equations of an ideal fluid in a region in R^n (or a smooth compact n-manifold with boundary) is a Poisson map relative to the Lie-Poisson bracket associated with the…
We consider Hamiltonian closures of the Vlasov equation using the phase-space moments of the distribution function. We provide some conditions on the closures imposed by the Jacobi identity. We completely solve some families of examples. As…
Infinitesimal volumes stretch and contract as they coevolve with classical phase space trajectories according to linearized dynamics. Unless these tangent-space dynamics are modified, chaotic evolution causes the volume spanned by evolving…
In this work, we develop and rigorously analyze a new class of particle methods for the magnetized Vlasov--Poisson--Fokker--Planck system. The proposed approach addresses two fundamental challenges: (1) the curse of dimensionality, which we…

This article is concerned with the kinetic modeling, by means of the Vlasov equation, of charged particles under the influence of a strong external electromagnetic field, i.e. when epsilon^2, the dimensionless cyclotron period, tends to…
This review presents an upgraded wave theory adapted to the high fluctuation level of driven realistic i.e. non-idealized plasmas. Above all, this means giving up the well-known concept of a linear wave theory in favor of a thoroughly…

A class of simple kinetic systems is considered, described by the 1D Vlasov-Landau equation with Poisson or Boltzmann electrostatic response and an energy source. Assuming a stochastic electric field, a solvable model is constructed for the…
High-resolution simulations of particle-based kinetic plasma models typically require a high number of particles and thus often become computationally intractable. This is exacerbated in multi-query simulations, where the problem depends on…
Steady plasma flows have been studied almost exclusively in systems with continuous symmetry or in open domains. In the absence of continuous symmetry, the lack of a conserved quantity makes the study of flows intrinsically challenging. In…
In the mechanics of inviscid conservative fluids, it is classical to generate the equations of dynamics by formulating with adequate variables, that the pressure integral calculated in the time-space domain corresponding to the motion of…
This article deals with the issues of global-in-time existence and asymptotic analysis of a fluid-particle interaction model in the so-called bubbling regime. The mixture occupies the physical space $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^3$ which may…
A multispecies, collisionless plasma is modeled by the Vlasov-Poisson system. Assuming that the electric field decays with sufficient rapidity as $t \to\infty$, we show that the velocity characteristics and spatial averages of the particle…
We prove the global-in-time existence of large-data finite-energy weak solutions to an incompressible hybrid Vlasov-magnetohydrodynamic model in three space dimensions. The model couples three essential ingredients of magnetized plasmas: a…
