Equilibrium states in galactic dynamics can be described as stationary solutions of the Vlasov-Poisson system, which is the non-relativistic case, or of the Vlasov-Einstein system, which is the relativistic case. To obtain spherically…
We develop a convergent variational perturbation theory for conditional probability densities of Markov processes. The power of the theory is illustrated by applying it to the diffusion of a particle in an anharmonic potential.
We construct smooth, non-symmetric plasma equilibria which possess closed, nested flux surfaces and solve the magnetohydrostatic (steady three-dimensional incompressible Euler) equations with a small force. The solutions are also `nearly'…
Let $X$ be a compact K\"ahler manifold and $\theta$ a smooth closed $(1,1)$-real form representing a big cohomology class $\alpha \in H^{1,1}(X,\R)$. The purpose of this note is to show, using pluripotential and viscosity techniques, that…
We prove existence and uniqueness for some nonlinear stochastic differential equation used in molecular dynamics, whose nonlinearity comes from a conditional expectation term. We also introduce an interacting particle system in order to…
Existing approaches to solving the Vlasov equation treat the system as a partial differential equation on a phase space grid, and track in either an Eulerian, Lagrangian, or semi-Lagrangian picture. We present an alternative approach, which…
Due to R. Beig and W. Simon (1990) there is a uniqueness theorem for static solutions of the Einstein-Euler system which applies to fluid models whose equation of state fulfills certain conditions. In this article it is shown that this…
In this paper we consider the conformal dynamics for a system of $N$ interacting relativistic massless particles. A detailed study is done for the case of two-particles, with a particular attention to the symmetries of the problem. In fact,…
We show analytically and numerically that, the velocity $v_\pm$ of a particle near the turning points $x_0$ vanishes, i. e. $v_\pm\rightarrow 0$ as $x\rightarrow x_0$, according to the power law scaling $\left|v_\pm\right| \propto…
The problem of confinement of spinless particles in 1+1 dimensions is approached with a linear potential by considering a mixing of Lorentz vector and scalar couplings. Analytical bound-states solutions are obtained when the scalar coupling…
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 deduce Levinson\'{}s theorem in non-relativistic quantum mechanics in one dimension as a sum rule for the spectral density constructed from asymptotic data. We assume a self-adjoint hamiltonian which guarantees completeness; the…
We present an extension of relativistic single-particle distribution function for weakly interacting particles at local thermodynamical equilibrium including spin degrees of freedom, for massive spin 1/2 particles. We infer, on the basis of…
In Newtonian gravity, a self-gravitating collisionless gas around a massive object such as a star or a planet is modeled via the Vlasov--Poisson system with an external Kepler potential. The presence of this attractive potential allows for…
This note shows how to considerably strengthen the usual mode of convergence of an $n$-particle system to its McKean-Vlasov limit, often known as propagation of chaos, when the volatility coefficient is nondegenerate and involves no…
In this work, we study the semiclassical limit of cubic Nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations for mixed states. We justify the limit to a singular Vlasov equation (in which the force field is proportional to the gradient of the density), for…
We investigate a natural approximation by subcritical Sobolev embeddings of the Sobolev quotient for the fractional Sobolev spaces $H^s$ for any $0<s<N/2$, using $\Gamma$-convergence techniques. We show that, for such approximations,…
We introduce a new family of paraxial asymptotic models that approximate the Vlasov-Maxwell equations in non-relativistic cases. This formulation is $n$-th order accurate in a parameter $\eta$, which denotes the ratio between the…
We consider the sedimentation of $N$ spherical particles with identical radii $R$ in a Stokes flow in $\mathbb R^3$. The particles satisfy a no-slip boundary condition and are subject to constant gravity. The dynamics of the particles is…
The Vlasov equation for the collisionless evolution of the single-particle probability distribution function (PDF) is a well-known Lie-Poisson Hamiltonian system. Remarkably, the operation of taking the moments of the Vlasov PDF preserves…
