Propagation of chaos for the 2D viscous vortex model (Q461277)

Since the hydrodynamics of 2D flows can be equivalently represented by Navier-Stokes (NS) equations or by the corresponding vorticity equation, it is an interesting problem to consider a dynamics of the system of \(N\) discrete vortices fully described by their positions and circulations in the case of large \(N\). Such a system can be considered as an equivalent for the model of stochastic particle systems, which approximates a solution for the initial NS equation. The authors intoduce the specific measures, which allow to analyse trajectory solutions in the context of the chaotic flow motions.
