Global Continuation of a Vlasov Model of Rotating Galaxies
Walter A. Strauss, Yilun Wu
A typical galaxy consists of a huge number of stars attracted to each other by gravity. For instance, the Milky Way has about stars. Thus it is typically modeled by the V…
Rapidly Rotating White Dwarfs
Walter Strauss, Yilun Wu
A rotating star may be modeled as a continuous system of particles attracted to each other by gravity and with a given total mass and prescribed angular velocity. Mathematically th…
Rapidly Rotating Stars

Steady States of Rotating Stars and Galaxies
Walter Strauss, Yilun Wu
A rotating continuum of particles attracted to each other by gravity may be modeled by the Euler-Poisson system. The existence of solutions is a very classical problem. Here it is…
