הרצאת המכון ללימודים מתקדמים: כיצד להקות, חלקיקים ורובוטים מסתנכרנים? מתמטיקה של יישור והתארגנות קולקטיבית
מרצה אורח: פרופסור איתן תדמור, המחלקה למתמטיקה והמכון למדע פיזיקלי וטכנולוגיה, אוניברסיטת מרילנד
How do interacting agents — whether birds flocking, robots coordinating, or particles aligning — self-organize into a coherent mono-kinetic state?
The Institute of Advanced Studies is honored to host Professor Eitan Tadmor as part of the Lowy Distinguished Guest Professors program.
As part of the Seminar in Applied Mathematics, Professor Tadmor will deliver a lecture titled “Emergence of Mono-Kinetic Solutions for Euler Alignment Equations.” Prof. Tadmor’s lecture will examine the emergent behavior of agent-based systems driven by alignment. He will discuss hydrodynamic models leading to the Euler alignment system, the mathematical challenge of closure due to missing energy balance, and the role of a reversed entropy inequality in selecting mono-kinetic states. The lecture will present recent results establishing strong solutions in dimensions D > 2, resolving a long-standing open problem in collective dynamics.
