The Smoluchowski equation is a system of partial differential equations modelling the diffusion and binary coagulation of a large collection of tiny particles. The mass parameter may be indexed either by positive integers, or by positive reals, these corresponding to the discrete or the continuous form of the equations. In dimension at least 3, we derive the continuous Smoluchowski PDE as a kinetic limit of a microscopic model of Brownian particles liable to coalesce, using a similar method to that used to derive the discrete form of the equations in Hammond and Rezakhanlou [4]. The principal innovation is a correlation-type bound on particle locations that permits the derivation in the continuous context while simplifying the arguments of [4]. We also comment on the scaling satisfied by the continuous Smoluchowski PDE, and its potential implications for blow-up of solutions of the equations.
We reduce the construction of a weak solution of the Cauchy problem for the Navier-Stokes system to the construction of a solution to a stochastic problem. Namely, we construct diffusion processes which allow us to obtain a probabilistic representati
In this paper we prove that the spatially homogeneous Landau equation for Maxwellian molecules can be represented through the product of two elementary processes. The first one is the Brownian motion on the group of rotations. The second one is, cond
In his work about hypocercivity, Villani [18] considers in particular convergence to equilibrium for the kinetic Langevin process. While his convergence results in L 2 are given in a quite general setting, convergence in entropy requires some bounded
Zolotarev proved a duality result that relates stable densities with different indices. In this paper, we show how Zolotarev duality leads to some interesting results on fractional diffusion. Fractional diffusion equations employ fractional derivativ
We study a McKean--Vlasov equation arising from a mean-field model of a particle system with positive feedback. As particles hit a barrier they cause the other particles to jump in the direction of the barrier and this feedback mechanism leads to the
