Kinetic theory of point vortices in two dimensions: analytical results and numerical simulations
P. H. Chavanis, M. Lemou
We develop the kinetic theory of point vortices in two-dimensional hydrodynamics and illustrate the main results of the theory with numerical simulations. We first consider the evo…

Relaxation of the distribution function tails for systems described by Fokker-Planck equations
Pierre-Henri Chavanis, Mohammed Lemou
We study the formation and the evolution of velocity distribution tails for systems with long-range interactions. In the thermal bath approximation, the evolution of the distributi…

Chapman-Enskog derivation of the generalized Smoluchowski equation
Pierre-Henri Chavanis, Philippe Laurencot, Mohammed Lemou
We use the Chapman-Enskog method to derive the Smoluchowski equation from the Kramers equation in a high friction limit. We consider two main extensions of this problem: we take in…
