Classical and quantum mechanical models of many-particle systems. Abstracts from the workshop held December 5 -- December 11, 2010. (Q408468)

Summary: The topic of this meeting were non-linear partial differential and integro-differential equations (in particular kinetic equations and their macroscopic/fluid-dynamical limits) modeling the dynamics of many-particle systems with applications in physics, engineering, and mathematical biology. Typical questions of interest were the derivation of macro-models from micro-models, the mathematical analysis (well-posedness, stability, asymptotic behavior of solutions), and ``to a lesser extent'' numerical aspects of such equations. A highlight of this meeting was a mini-course on the recent mathematical theory of Landau damping.
