We present a lattice-based numerical method to describe the non equilibrium behavior of a simple fluid under non-uniform spatial conditions. The evolution equation for the one-particle phase-space distribution function is derived starting…
We introduce a kinetic framework for modeling the time evolution of the statistical distributions of the population densities in the three compartments of susceptible, infectious, and recovered individuals, under epidemic spreading driven…
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…
Recently linear dissipative models of the Boltzmann equation have been introduced. In this work, we consider the problem of constructiing suitable hydrodynamic approximations for such models where the mean velocity and the temperature of…
We develop an efficient algorithm for a spatially inhomogeneous matrix-valued quantum Boltzmann equation derived from the Hubbard model. The distribution functions are $2 \times 2$ matrix-valued to accommodate the spin degree of freedom,…
Models of biological processes are often subject to different sources of noise. Developing an understanding of the combined effects of different types of uncertainty is an open challenge. In this paper, we study a variant of the…
We introduce an interacting particle system that models the spread of an epidemic in terms of heterogeneous diffusive dynamics, rather than exogenous contact and transmission rates at the population level as in classical compartmental…
Steady simple shear flow of a low-density binary mixture of inelastic smooth hard spheres is studied in the context of the Boltzmann equation. This equation is solved by using two different and complementary approaches: a Sonine polynomial…
We study the emergence of Boltzmann's law for the "single particle energy distribution" in a closed system of interacting classical spins. It is shown that for a large number of particles Boltzmann's law may occur, even if the interaction…
We present and analyze two simple $N$-particle particle systems for the spread of an infection, respectively with binary and with multi-body interactions. We establish a convergence result, as $N \to \infty$, to a set of kinetic equations,…
We introduce a model of self-propelled particles carrying out a Brownian motion with a diffusion coefficient which depends on the local density of particles within a certain finite radius. Numerical simulations show that in a range of…
A semi-classical approach to the study of the evolution of anyonic excitations--elementary particles with fractional statistics, complementing bosons and fermions--is through the Boltzmann equation for anyons. This work reviews a…
In this paper we first introduce the general stochastic epidemic model for the spread of infectious diseases. Then we give methods for inferring model parameters such as the basic reproduction number $R_0$ and vaccination coverage $v_c$…
We determine the number and distribution of the fermion states in the standard model based on the possible fermion representations of the gauge bosons. By extracting the even parity scalars from the fermion states we suggest the existence…
This paper offers a qualitative insight into the convergence of Bayesian parameter inference in a setup which mimics the modeling of the spread of a disease with associated disease measurements. Specifically, we are interested in the…
Epidemic models often reflect characteristic features of infectious spreading processes by coupled non-linear differential equations considering different states of health (such as Susceptible, Infected, or Recovered). This compartmental…
We consider a multi-species reaction-diffusion system that arises in epidemiology to describe the spread of several strains, or variants, of a disease in a population. Our model is a natural spatial, multi-species, extension of the…
In this paper we elaborate on homogeneous and heterogeneous SIR-type epidemiological models. We find an unexpected correspondence between the epidemic trajectory of a transmissible disease in a homogeneous SIR-type model and radial null…
In this paper we study binary interaction schemes with uncertain parameters for a general class of Boltzmann-type equations with applications in classical gas and aggregation dynamics. We consider deterministic (i.e., a priori averaged) and…
We present a numerical algorithm to solve the Boltzmann equation for the electron distribution function in magnetic multilayer heterostructures with non-collinear magnetizations. The solution is based on a scattering matrix formalism for…
