Research Abstract |
1. The hydrodynamic limit for a system of multi-dimensional Brownian particles which interact one another through a two-body potential having a finite range and satisfying the super-stability condition is derived under the hypothesis that the third moments of the empirical densities are uniformly bounded. For the derivation we also show a kind of virial theorem in the classical theory of Gibbs statistical mechanics: the pressure is represented as a limit of normalized sums of the virials in the law of large numbers in every space dimension [K. Uchiyama, Pressure in classical statistical mechanics and interacting Brownian particles in multi-dimensions, Annales Henri Poincare (J. Theor. Math. Phys.) 1,1159-1202 (2000)]. Although such a theorem has already been proved if the uniqueness for Gibbs states holds (as in the cases of one-dimension or of high temperature ), this is for the first time of the proof without assuming the uniqueness. 2. A class of one-dimensional evolution equations which are nonlocal and derived in the scaling limits from systems of interacting particles obeying the classical law of motion is studied. As fundamental theorems there are established the existence and the uniqueness of solutions, the maximum principle, a comparison theorem for integrated solutions, and the convergences to the 'Barenblatt' solutions, etc. In the particular case when the interacting force in the particle system is given by a logarithmic potential, quite fine properties of the solutions are obtained. [K.Uchiyama, Behavior of solutions to the initial value problem for a class of integro-differential equations, Nonlinear Analysis (2001).] These results if combined with former results on the scaling limits give a clear macroscopic view about the behavior of the underlying microscopic model of particles when the interaction potential has a long range.
