Kinetics at Madison
About
A group of us at the math department have been studying kinetic equations and the related topics. This webpage collects (some) progress made over the years by Qin Li and the group.
Kinetic theory is a body of theory that studies interacting particles via a statistical physics perspectives. It is a mesoscopic modeling tool that draws connections with microscopic description (quantum dynamics such as Schroedinger equation) and macroscopic (fluid dynamics such as Euler equations), and naturally serves as a bridge across scales.
