We use the method of the microscopic phase density to get the kinetic equation for the system of self-propelled particles with Vicsek-like alignment rule. The hydrodynamic equations are derived for the ordered phase taking into account the…
Self-propelled particles with alignment, displaying ordered collective motions such as swarming, can be investigated by the well-known Vicsek model. However, challenges still remain regarding the nature of the associated phase transition.…
The flocking of self-propelled particles in heterogeneous environments is relevant to both natural and artificial systems. The Vicsek model is a canonical choice to investigate such systems due to the minimal number of parameters required…
We study the order-disorder transition in a collection of polar self-propelled particles, interacting through a distance dependent short range alignment interaction. A distance dependent interaction parameter $a_0$ is introduced such that…
In this work, we investigate an individual-based model (IBM) for self-propelled agents interacting locally on a plane. Agents are characterized by their position, the angle determining their direction of motion, and their angular velocity.…
The transition from a microscopic model for the movement of many particles to a macroscopic continuum model for a density flow is studied. The microscopic model for the free flow is completely deterministic, described by an interaction…
When particles move at a constant speed and have the tendency to align their directions of motion, ordered large scale movement can emerge despite significant levels of noise. Many variants of this model of self-propelled particles have…
Collective behavior in biological systems was first captured by the Vicsek model, in which particles align their velocities in the average direction of neighbors, leading to coherent motion and showing an order-disorder transition. However,…
We analyze the continuous time evolution of a $d$-dimensional system of $N$ self propelled particles with a kinematic constraint on the velocities inspired by the original Vicsek's one \cite{VCB-JCS}. Interactions among particles are…
A model of self-driven particles similar to the Vicsek model [Phys. Rev. Lett. 75 (1995) 1226] but with metric-free interactions is studied by means of a novel Enskog-type kinetic theory. In this model, N particles of constant speed v0 try…
Recently, an Enskog-type kinetic theory for Vicsek-type models for self-propelled particles has been proposed [T. Ihle, Phys. Rev. E 83, 030901 (2011)]. This theory is based on an exact equation for a Markov chain in phase space and is not…
The cohesive collective motion (flocking, swarming) of autonomous agents is ubiquitously observed and exploited in both natural and man-made settings, thus, minimal models for its description are essential. In a model with continuous space…
The goal of these lecture notes is to present in a unified way various models for the dynamics of aligning self-propelled rigid bodies at different scales and the links between them. The models and methods are inspired from [12,13], but, in…
We provide a numerical study of the macroscopic model of [3] derived from an agent-based model for a system of particles interacting through a dynamical network of links. Assuming that the network remodelling process is very fast, the…
Collective behavior occurs ubiquitously in nature and it plays a key role in bacterial colonies, mammalian cells or flocks of birds. Here, we examine the average density and velocity of self-propelled particles, which are described by a…
In this paper we study macroscopic density equations in which the diffusion coefficient depends on a weighted spatial average of the density itself. We show that large differences (not present in the local density-dependence case) appear…
We consider a Vicsek model of self-propelled particles with bounded confidence, where each particle interacts only with neighbors that have a similar direction. Depending on parameters, the system exhibits a continuous or discontinuous…
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…
The Veltmann models, which include the Plummer and Hernquist models as special cases, are studied in the presence of a cosmological constant. Physically relevant quantities such as the velocity dispersion profiles and the anisotropy…
We propose dynamical collapse models in which the stochastic collapse terms affect only photons and/or gravitons. In principle, isolated systems comprising only massive particles could evolve unitarily indefinitely in such models. In…
