Mean field limit for Bosons with compact kernels interactions by Wigner measures transportation
We consider a class of many-body Hamiltonians composed of a free (kinetic)
part and a multi-particle (potential) interaction with a compactness assumption
on the latter part. We investigate the mean field limit of such quantum systems
following the Wigner measures approach. We prove the propagation of these
measures along the flow of a nonlinear (Hartree) field equation. This enhances
and complements some previous results in the subject.Comment: 27 pages. arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1111.5918 by

On the analyticity and Gevrey class regularity up to the boundary for the Euler Equations
We consider the Euler equations in a three-dimensional Gevrey-class bounded
domain. Using Lagrangian coordinates we obtain the Gevrey-class persistence of
the solution, up to the boundary, with an explicit estimate on the rate of
decay of the Gevrey-class regularity radius
Semiclassical Theory of Time-Reversal Focusing
Time reversal mirrors have been successfully implemented for various kinds of
waves propagating in complex media. In particular, acoustic waves in chaotic
cavities exhibit a refocalization that is extremely robust against external
perturbations or the partial use of the available information. We develop a
semiclassical approach in order to quantitatively describe the refocusing
signal resulting from an initially localized wave-packet. The time-dependent
reconstructed signal grows linearly with the temporal window of injection, in
agreement with the acoustic experiments, and reaches the same spatial extension
of the original wave-packet. We explain the crucial role played by the chaotic
dynamics for the reconstruction of the signal and its stability against
external perturbations.Comment: 4 pages, 1 figur
Macro stress testing with a macroeconomic credit risk model: Application to the French manufacturing sector.
The aim of this paper is to build and estimate a macroeconomic model of credit risk for the French manufacturing sector. This model is based on Wilson's CreditPortfolioView model (1997a, 1997b); it enables us to simulate loss distributions for a credit portfolio for several macroeconomic scenarios. We implement two simulation procedures based on two assumptions relative to probabilities of default (PDs): in the first procedure, firms are assumed to have identical default probabilities; in the second, individual risk is taken into account. The empirical results indicate that these simulation procedures lead to quite different loss distributions. For instance, a negative one standard deviation shock on output leads to a maximum loss of 3.07% of the financial debt of the French manufacturing sector, with a probability of 99%, under the identical default probability hypothesis versus 2.61% with individual default probabilities.macro stress test ; credit risk model ; loss distribution.
Mean-Field- and Classical Limit of Many-Body Schr\"odinger Dynamics for Bosons
We present a new proof of the convergence of the N-particle Schroedinger
dynamics for bosons towards the dynamics generated by the Hartree equation in
the mean-field limit. For a restricted class of two-body interactions, we
obtain convergence estimates uniform in the Planck constant , up to an
exponentially small remainder. For h=0, the classical dynamics in the
mean-field limit is given by the Vlasov equation.Comment: Latex 2e, 18 page
Mean-field evolution of fermions with singular interaction
We consider a system of N fermions in the mean-field regime interacting
though an inverse power law potential , for
. We prove the convergence of a solution of the many-body
Schr\"{o}dinger equation to a solution of the time-dependent Hartree-Fock
equation in the sense of reduced density matrices. We stress the dependence on
the singularity of the potential in the regularity of the initial data. The
proof is an adaptation of [22], where the case is treated.Comment: 16 page
Semiclassical Propagation of Coherent States for the Hartree equation
In this paper we consider the nonlinear Hartree equation in presence of a
given external potential, for an initial coherent state. Under suitable
smoothness assumptions, we approximate the solution in terms of a time
dependent coherent state, whose phase and amplitude can be determined by a
classical flow. The error can be estimated in by C \sqrt {\var}, \var
being the Planck constant. Finally we present a full formal asymptotic
expansion
Blow-up of the hyperbolic Burgers equation
The memory effects on microscopic kinetic systems have been sometimes
modelled by means of the introduction of second order time derivatives in the
macroscopic hydrodynamic equations. One prototypical example is the hyperbolic
modification of the Burgers equation, that has been introduced to clarify the
interplay of hyperbolicity and nonlinear hydrodynamic evolution. Previous
studies suggested the finite time blow-up of this equation, and here we present
a rigorous proof of this fact
Rate of Convergence Towards Hartree Dynamics
We consider a system of N bosons interacting through a two-body potential
with, possibly, Coulomb-type singularities. We show that the difference between
the many-body Schr\"odinger evolution in the mean-field regime and the
effective nonlinear Hartree dynamics is at most of the order 1/N, for any fixed
time. The N-dependence of the bound is optimal.Comment: 26 page
Derivation of the Cubic Non-linear Schr\"odinger Equation from Quantum Dynamics of Many-Body Systems
We prove rigorously that the one-particle density matrix of three dimensional
interacting Bose systems with a short-scale repulsive pair interaction
converges to the solution of the cubic non-linear Schr\"odinger equation in a
suitable scaling limit. The result is extended to -particle density matrices
for all positive integer .Comment: 72 pages, 17 figures. Final versio
