In the mean-field regime, the evolution of a gas of $N$ interacting particles is governed in first approximation by a Vlasov type equation with a self-induced force field. This equation is conservative and describes return to equilibrium only in the very weak sense of Landau damping. However, the first correction to this approximation is given by the Lenard-Balescu operator, which dissipates entropy on the very long timescale $O(N)$. In this paper, we show how one can derive rigorously this correction on intermediate timescales (of order $O(N^r)$ for $r<1$), close to equilibrium.

In this work, we elucidate the mathematical structure of the integral that arises when computing the electron-ion temperature equilibration time for a homogeneous weakly-coupled plasma from the Lenard-Balescu equation. With some minor approximations,
we derive an exact formula, requiring no input Coulomb logarithm, for the equilibration rate that is valid for moderate electron-ion temperature ratios and arbitrary electron degeneracy. For large temperature ratios, we derive the necessary correction to account for the coupled-mode effect, which can be evaluated very efficiently using ordinary Gaussian quadrature.
Let $$L_0=suml_{j=1}^nM_j^0D_j+M_0^0,,,,,D_j=frac{1}{i}frac{pa}{paxj}, quad xinRn,$$ be a constant coefficient first-order partial differential system, where the matrices $M_j^0$ are Hermitian. It is assumed that the homogeneous part is stron
gly propagative. In the nonhomegeneous case it is assumed that the operator is isotropic . The spectral theory of such systems and their potential perturbations is expounded, and a Limiting Absorption Principle is obtained up to thresholds. Special attention is given to a detailed study of the Dirac and Maxwell operators. The estimates of the spectral derivative near the thresholds are based on detailed trace estimates on the slowness surfaces. Two applications of these estimates are presented: begin{itemize} item Global spacetime estimates of the associated evolution unitary groups, that are also commonly viewed as decay estimates. In particular the Dirac and Maxwell systems are explicitly treated. item The finiteness of the eigenvalues (in the spectral gap) of the perturbed Dirac operator is studied, under suitable decay assumptions on the potential perturbation. end{itemize}
In arXiv:1201.4067 and arXiv:1611.08030, Eyink and Shi and Chibbaro et al., respectively, formally derived an infinite, coupled hierarchy of equations for the spectral correlation functions of a system of weakly interacting nonlinear dispersive waves
with random phases in the standard kinetic limit. Analogously to the relationship between the Boltzmann hierarchy and Boltzmann equation, this spectral hierarchy admits a special class of factorized solutions, where each factor is a solution to the wave kinetic equation (WKE). A question left open by these works and highly relevant for the mathematical derivation of the WKE is whether solutions of the spectral hierarchy are unique, in particular whether factorized initial data necessarily lead to factorized solutions. In this article, we affirmatively answer this question in the case of 4-wave interactions by showing, for the first time, that this spectral hierarchy is well-posed in an appropriate function space. Our proof draws on work of Chen and Pavlovi{c} for the Gross-Pitaevskii hierarchy in quantum many-body theory and of Germain et al. for the well-posedness of the WKE.
This article will review recent results on dimensional reduction for branched polymers, and discuss implications for critical phenomena. Parisi and Sourlas argued in 1981 that branched polymers fall into the universality class of the Yang-Lee edge in
two fewer dimensions. Brydges and I have proven in [math-ph/0107005] that the generating function for self-avoiding branched polymers in D+2 continuum dimensions is proportional to the pressure of the hard-core continuum gas at negative activity in D dimensions (which is in the Yang-Lee or $i phi^3$ class). I will describe how this equivalence arises from an underlying supersymmetry of the branched polymer model. - I will also use dimensional reduction to analyze the crossover of two-dimensional branched polymers to their mean-field limit, and to show that the scaling is given by an Airy function (the same as in [cond-mat/0107223]).
A mean-field theory is developed for the scale-invariant length distributions observed during the coarsening of one-dimensional faceted surfaces. This theory closely follows the Lifshitz-Slyozov-Wagner theory of Ostwald ripening in two-phase systems
[1-3], but the mechanism of coarsening in faceted surfaces requires the addition of convolution terms recalling the work of Smoluchowski [4] and Schumann [5] on coalescence. The model is solved by the exponential distribution, but agreement with experiment is limited by the assumption that neighboring facet lengths are uncorrelated. However, the method concisely describes the essential processes operating in the scaling state, illuminates a clear path for future refinement, and offers a framework for the investigation of faceted surfaces evolving under arbitrary dynamics.
