OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
An Additive-Noise Approximation to Keller–Segel–Dean–Kawasaki Dynamics
The theory of fluctuating hydrodynamics aims to describe density fluctuations of interacting particle systems as so-called Dean–Kawasaki stochastic partial differential equations. However, Dean–Kawasaki equations are ill-posed and the focus has shifted towards finding well-posed approximations that retain the statistical properties of the particle system. In this talk, we consider the fluctuating hydrodynamics of a system in which particles are attracted to one another through a Coulomb force (Keller–Segel dynamics). We propose an additive-noise approximation and show that it retains the same law of large numbers and central limit theorem as (conjectured for) the particle system. We further deduce a large deviation principle and show that the approximation error lies in the skeleton equation that drives the rate function. Based on joint work with Avi Mayorcas.
