Self-organized dynamics: aggregation and flocking.
April 14, 2017
3-4 PM, 646A PGH
Abstract
Self-organized behaviors are commonly observed in nature and human societies. In this talk, I will present some celebrated mathematical models, where simple small-scale interactions lead to the emergence of global behaviors. The models can be represented in different scales: from agent-based dynamics, through kinetic descriptions, to various types of hydrodynamic systems. I will discuss some recent results on these systems including existence of solutions, large time behaviors, connections between different scales, and numerical implementations.
