In this paper, we study the mean field limit of interacting particles with memory that are governed by a system of interacting non-Markovian Langevin equations. Under the assumption of quasi-Markovianity (i.e. that the memory in the system can be described using a finite number of auxiliary processes), we pass to the mean field limit to obtain the corresponding McKean-Vlasov equation in an extended phase space. We obtain the fundamental solution (Greens function) for this equation, for the case of a quadratic confining potential and a quadratic (Curie-Weiss) interaction. Furthermore, for nonconvex confining potentials we characterize the stationary state(s) of the McKean-Vlasov equation, and we show that the bifurcation diagram of the stationary problem is independent of the memory in the system. In addition, we show that the McKean-Vlasov equation for the non-Markovian dynamics can be written in the GENERIC formalism and we study convergence to equilibrium and the Markovian asymptotic limit.

In this article we investigate the phase transition phenomena that occur in a model of self-organisation through body-attitude coordination. Here, the body-attitude of an agent is modelled by a rotation matrix in $mathbb{R}^3$ as in [Degond, Frouvelle, Merino-Aceituno, 2017]. The starting point of this study is a BGK equation modelling the evolution of the distribution function of the system at a kinetic level. The main novelty of this work is to show that in the spatially homogeneous case, self-organisation may appear or not depending on the local density of agents involved. We first exhibit a connection between body-orientation models and models of nematic alignment of polymers in higher dimensional space from which we deduce the complete description of the possible equilibria Then, thanks to a gradient-flow structure specific to this BGK model, we are able to prove the stability and the convergence towards the equilibria in the different regimes. We then derive the macroscopic models associated to the stable equilibria in the spirit of [Degond, Frouvelle, Merino-Aceituno, 2017] and [Degond, Frouvelle, Liu, 2015].
We provide a proof of mean-field convergence of first-order dissipative or conservative dynamics of particles with Riesz-type singular interaction (the model interaction is an inverse power $s$ of the distance for any $0<s<d$) when assuming a certain regularity of the solutions to the limiting evolution equations. It relies on a modulated-energy approach, as introduced in previous works where it was restricted to the Coulomb and super-Coulombic cases. The method also allows us to incorporate multiplicative noise of transport type into the dynamics for the first time in this generality. It relies in extending functional inequalities of arXiv:1803.08345, arXiv:2011.12180, arXiv:2003.11704 to more general interactions, via a new, robust proof that exploits a certain commutator structure.
In this paper we consider systems of weakly interacting particles driven by colored noise in a bistable potential, and we study the effect of the correlation time of the noise on the bifurcation diagram for the equilibrium states. We accomplish this by solving the corresponding McKean-Vlasov equation using a Hermite spectral method, and we verify our findings using Monte Carlo simulations of the particle system. We consider both Gaussian and non-Gaussian noise processes, and for each model of the noise we also study the behavior of the system in the small correlation time regime using perturbation theory. The spectral method that we develop in this paper can be used for solving linear and nonlinear, local and nonlocal (mean-field) Fokker-Planck equations, without requiring that they have a gradient structure.
In this paper, we consider the mean field limit of Brownian particles with Coulomb interaction in 3D space. In particular, using a symmetrization technique, we show that the limit measure almost surely is a weak solution to the limiting nonlinear Fokker-Planck equation. By proving that the energy almost surely is bounded by the initial energy, we improve the regularity of the weak solutions. Moreover, by a natural assumption, we establish the weak strong uniqueness principle, which is closely related to the propagation of chaos.
The starting point of our analysis is a class of one-dimensional interacting particle systems with two species. The particles are confined to an interval and exert a nonlocal, repelling force on each other, resulting in a nontrivial equilibrium configuration. This class of particle systems covers the setting of pile-ups of dislocation walls, which is an idealised setup for studying the microscopic origin of several dislocation density models in the literature. Such density models are used to construct constitutive relations in plasticity models. Our aim is to pass to the many-particle limit. The main challenge is the combination of the nonlocal nature of the interactions, the singularity of the interaction potential between particles of the same type, the non-convexity of the the interaction potential between particles of the opposite type, and the interplay between the length-scale of the domain with the length-scale $ell_n$ of the decay of the interaction potential. Our main results are the $Gamma$-convergence of the energy of the particle positions, the evolutionary convergence of the related gradient flows for $ell_n$ sufficiently large, and the non-convergence of the gradient flows for $ell_n$ sufficiently small.
