A Simple Proof of the Cucker-smale Flocking Dynamics and Mean-field Limit
نویسندگان
چکیده
Abstract. We present a simple proof on the formation of flocking to the Cucker-Smale system based on the explicit construction of a Lyapunov functional. Our results also provide a unified condition on the initial states in which the exponential convergence to flocking state will occur. For large particle systems, we give a rigorous justification for the mean-field limit from the many particle Cucker-Smale system to the Vlasov equation with flocking dissipation as the number of particles goes to infinity.

Hydrodynamic Limit of the Kinetic Cucker-smale Flocking Model
The hydrodynamic limit of a kinetic Cucker-Smale flocking model is investigated. The starting point is the model considered in [17], which in addition to free-transport of individuals and a standard Cucker-Smale alignment operator, includes Brownian noise and strong local alignment. The latter was derived in [18] as the singular limit of an alignment operator first introduced by Motsch and Tadm...
متن کاملControl to Flocking of the Kinetic Cucker-Smale Model
The well-known Cucker-Smale model is a macroscopic system reflecting flocking, i.e. the alignment of velocities in a group of autonomous agents having mutual interactions. In the present paper, we consider the mean-field limit of that model, called the kinetic Cucker-Smale model, which is a transport partial differential equation involving nonlocal terms. It is known that flocking is reached as...
متن کاملA hydrodynamic model for the interaction of Cucker–Smale particles and incompressible fluid
We present a new hydrodynamic model for the interactions between collision-free Cucker–Smale flocking particles and a viscous incompressible fluid. Our proposed model consists of two hydrodynamic models. For the Cucker–Smale flocking particles, we employ the pressureless Euler system with a non-local flocking dissipation, whereas for the fluid, we use the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations....
متن کاملCucker-Smale flocking with alternating leaders
We study the emergent flocking behavior in a group of Cucker-Smale flocking agents under rooted leadership with alternating leaders. It is well known that the network topology regulates the emergent behaviors of flocks. All existing results on the Cucker-Smale model with leader-follower topologies assume a fixed leader during temporal evolution process. The rooted leadership is the most general...
متن کاملEmergence of Time-asymptotic Flocking in a Stochastic Cucker-smale System
Abstract. We study a stochastic Cucker-Smale flocking system in which particles interact with the environment through white noise. We provide the definition of flocking for the stochastic system, and show that when the communication rate is constant, the system exhibits a flocking behavior independent of the initial configurations. For the case of a radially symmetric communication rate with a ...
