The Random Batch Method proposed in our previous work [Jin et al., J. Comput. Phys., 400(1), 2020] is not only a numerical method for interacting particle systems and its mean-field limit, but also can be viewed as a model of particle system in which particles interact, at discrete time, with randomly selected mini-batch of particles. In this paper we investigate the mean-field limit of this model as the number of particles $N to infty$. Unlike the classical mean field limit for interacting particle systems where the law of large numbers plays the role and the chaos is propagated to later times, the mean field limit now does not rely on the law of large numbers and chaos is imposed at every discrete time. Despite this, we will not only justify this mean-field limit (discrete in time) but will also show that the limit, as the discrete time interval $tau to 0$, approaches to the solution of a nonlinear Fokker-Planck equation arising as the mean-field limit of the original interacting particle system in Wasserstein distance.

We investigate several important issues regarding the Random Batch Method (RBM) for second order interacting particle systems. We first show the uniform-in-time strong convergence for second order systems under suitable contraction conditions. Second ly, we propose the application of RBM for singular interaction kernels via kernel splitting strategy, and investigate numerically the application to molecular dynamics.

We develop Random Batch Methods for interacting particle systems with large number of particles. These methods use small but random batches for particle interactions, thus the computational cost is reduced from $O(N^2)$ per time step to $O(N)$, for a system with $N$ particles with binary interactions. On one hand, these methods are efficient Asymptotic-Preserving schemes for the underlying particle systems, allowing $N$-independent time steps and also capture, in the $N to infty$ limit, the solution of the mean field limit which are nonlinear Fokker-Planck equations; on the other hand, the stochastic processes generated by the algorithms can also be regarded as new models for the underlying problems. For one of the methods, we give a particle number independent error estimate under some special interactions. Then, we apply these methods to some representative problems in mathematics, physics, social and data sciences, including the Dyson Brownian motion from random matrix theory, Thomsons problem, distribution of wealth, opinion dynamics and clustering. Numerical results show that the methods can capture both the transient solutions and the global equilibrium in these problems.

In the nonlinear diffusion framework, stochastic processes of McKean-Vlasov type play an important role. In some cases they correspond to processes attracted by their own probability distribution: the so-called self-stabilizing processes. Such diffus ions can be obtained by taking the hydrodymamic limit in a huge system of linear diffusions in interaction. In both cases, for the linear and the nonlinear processes, small-noise asymptotics have been emphasized by specific large deviation phenomenons. The natural question, therefore, is: is it possible to interchange the mean-field limit with the small-noise limit? The aim here is to consider this question by proving that the rate function of the first particle in a mean-field system converges to the rate function of the hydrodynamic limit as the number of particles becomes large.

We review the Random Batch Methods (RBM) for interacting particle systems consisting of $N$-particles, with $N$ being large. The computational cost of such systems is of $O(N^2)$, which is prohibitively expensive. The RBM methods use small but random batches so the computational cost is reduced, per time step, to $O(N)$. In this article we discuss these methods for both classical and quantum systems, the corresponding theory, and applications from molecular dynamics, statistical samplings, to agent-based models for collective behavior, and quantum Monte-Carlo methods.
Controlling large particle systems in collective dynamics by a few agents is a subject of high practical importance, e.g., in evacuation dynamics. In this paper we study an instantaneous control approach to steer an interacting particle system into a certain spatial region by repulsive forces from a few external agents, which might be interpreted as shepherd dogs leading sheep to their home. We introduce an appropriate mathematical model and the corresponding optimization problem. In particular, we are interested in the interaction of numerous particles, which can be approximated by a mean-field equation. Due to the high-dimensional phase space this will require a tailored optimization strategy. The arising control problems are solved using adjoint information to compute the descent directions. Numerical results on the microscopic and the macroscopic level indicate the convergence of optimal controls and optimal states in the mean-field limit,i.e., for an increasing number of particles.
