4 Cucker-Smale model Let (x i, v i ) be the position and velocity of i-th particle. Then Cucker-Smale model reads as dx i dt = v i, t > 0, i = 1,, N, dv i dt = 1 N 1 ψ(x j x i )(v j v i ), ψ(x) := N (1 + x 2, β 0. ) β/2 j=1 Definition: Let P := {(x i, v i )} N i=1 be an N-body interacting system. Then P exhibits a flocking if and only if the following two relations hold: lim v i (t) v j (t) = 0 and sup x i (t) x j (t) <, 1 i, j N. t 0 t< Property: Conservation of momentum. Flocking estimate: If ψ(r) dr = ( β 1), then we have sup max x i (t) x j (t) < and max v i (t) v j (t) Ce Ct for t 0. 0 t< 1 i,j N 1 i,j N Ref.- Cucker-Smale(2007), Ha-Tadmor(2008), Ha-Liu(2009), Carrillo-Fornasier-Rosado-Toscani(2010),... 4 / 29

11 Singular communication weights Cucker-Smale model with singular communication weights: dx i dt = v i, t > 0, i = 1,, N, dv i dt = 1 N ψ(x j x i )(v j v i ), ψ(x) = ψ s (x) := 1 N x α, α > 0. j=1 (1) 10 / 29

12 Singular communication weights Cucker-Smale model with singular communication weights: dx i dt = v i, t > 0, i = 1,, N, dv i dt = 1 N ψ(x j x i )(v j v i ), ψ(x) = ψ s (x) := 1 N x α, α > 0. j=1 (1) Flocking estimate: Let α 1. Suppose that the initial data satisfies v 0 v c(0) l < 1 ψ(s) ds. 2 2 x 0 x c (0) l Then there exist positive constants c 1 > c 0 > 0 such that x(t) x c(0) l [c 0, c 1 ] and v(t) v c(0) l v 0 v c(0) l e ψ(2c1)t. Ref.- Ahn-Choi-Ha-Lee(2012) 10 / 29

13 Sharp condition to avoid collision Finite-time collision estimate(α < 1): Let d = 1. If we consider the two-particle system, then the following statements are equivalent: 1. There exists a time t 0 < such that φ(t 0 ) = φ(t 0 ) = Initial data satisfy φ(0) = 2Ψ(φ(0)), where Ψ(s) := 1 1 α s1 α is a primitive of φ and φ(t) = x 1 (t) x 2 (t). Non collision estimate(α 1): Suppose that the initial data (x 0, v 0 ) are non-collisional, i.e., they satisfy x i0 x j0 for 1 i j N. Then the system (1) admits a unique smooth solution. Moreover, the trajectories of this solution are also non-collisional, i.e., x i (t) x j (t) for 1 i j N, t 0. Ref.- Peszek(2014), Carrillo-C.-Mucha-Peszek(work in progress) 11 / 29

14 Cucker-Smale model with singular communication weights Main equation: tf + v x f + v (F (f )f ) = 0, (x, v) R d R d, t > 0, (2) where F denotes the alignment force between particles: F (f )(x, v, t) = ψ(x y)(w v)f (y, w) dydw, ψ(x) = 1 with α (0, d 1). x α Definition: For a given T (0, ), f is a weak solution of (3) on the time-interval [0, T ) if and only if the following condition are satisfied: (i) f L (0, T ; (L 1 + Lp )(R d R d )) C([0, T ]; P 1 (R d R d )), (ii) f satisfies the equation (3) in the weak sense. 12 / 29

15 Local existence and uniqueness of weak solutions Theorem(Carrillo-C.-Hauray, 2014): Suppose that f 0 is compactly supported in velocity and (α + 1)p < d, and the initial data f 0 satisfies f 0 (L 1 + L p )(R d R d ) P 1 (R d R d ). Then there exist T > 0 and unique weak solution f to the system (3) in the sense of Definition 1 on the time interval [0, T ]. Furthermore, if f i, i = 1, 2 are two such solutions to (3), then we have the following d 1 -stability estimate. d dt d 1(f 1 (t), f 2 (t)) Cd 1 (f 1 (t), f 2 (t)), for t [0, T ], where C is a positive constant. 13 / 29

16 Idea of Proof (Regularization) The approximate solutions are obtained by solving: tf ε + v x f ε + v [F ε ] (f ε)f ε = 0, (x, v) R d R d, t > 0, F ε (f ε)(x, v, t) := ψ ε(x y)(w v)f ε(y, w, t)dydw, R d R d f ε(x, v, 0) =: f 0 (x, v). where ψ ε := ψ θ ε. (Support estimate of f ε in velocity) Consider the forward bi-characteristics (X ε(s; 0, x, v), V ε(s; 0, x, v)) satisfying the following ODE system: dx ε(s) = V ε(s), ds dv ε(s) = ψ ε (X ε(s) y) (w V ε(s))f ε(y, w, s)dydw. ds R d R d Set Ω ε(t) and R v ε (t) the v-projection of compact suppf ε(, t) and maximum value of v in Ω ε(t), respectively: Ω ε(t) := {v R d : (x, v) R d R d such that f ε(x, v, t) 0}, Rε v (t) := max v. v Ω ε(t) Then we have R v ε (t) R v ε (0) = R v 0 := max v Ω(0) v. 14 / 29

17 Idea of Proof(Conti.) (Uniform bound estimate): Let f ε be the solution to regularized equation. Then there exists a T > 0 such that the uniform L 1 L p -estimate of f ε sup f ε L 1 L p C, t [0,T ] holds, where C is a positive constant independent of ε. (f ε is a Cauchy sequence): Let f ε and f ε be two solutions of the regularized equation. Then there exists C independent of ε and ε such that holds for all t 0. d dt d 1(f ε(t), f ε (t)) C(d 1 (f ε(t), f ε (t)) + ε + ε ), (Passing to the limit ε 0): The limit curve of measure f obtained from the above is a solution of the equation (3). Open question: Rigorous derivation of the mean-field limit 15 / 29

18 Further extensions: Flocking models with singular kernels Main equation: tf + v x f + v (F (f )f ) = 0, (x, v) R d R d, t > 0, (3) where F denotes the alignment force between particles: F (f )(x, v, t) = ψ(x y) v φ(v w)f (y, w, t)dydw. R d R d Here, the potential function φ(v) for the velocity coupling is given by Two different cases: φ(v) = 1 β v β, where β > 0. Singular communication weight and super-linear velocity coupling: ψ(x) = ψ 1 (x) := 1 x α with α (0, d 1) and β 2. Regular communication weight and sub-linear velocity coupling: ( ) 3 d ψ(x) = ψ 2 (x) 0 symmetric, with ψ 2 (L loc Lip loc ) (Rd ) and β, / 29

19 Normalized communication weights Cucker-Smale model: dx i dt = v i, t > 0, i = 1,, N, dv i dt = 1 N 1 ψ(x j x i )(v j v i ), ψ(x) = N (1 + x 2 ) β/2. j=1 Cucker-Smale model with normalized communication weights: dx i dt = v i, t > 0, i = 1,, N, dv i dt = 1 N k=1 ψ(x i x k ) N ψ(x j x i )(v j v i ). j=1 Motsch-Tadmor(2011) ψ 2 (r) dr = = Flocking Ref.- Tadmor-Tan (2014): ψ(r) dr = = Flocking 17 / 29

F = M + ) 1 Mf, M = M(v) = exp ( v 2 (2π) d/2 2 The equation for the perturbation f satisfies tf + v x f + u F v f = Lf + Γ(f, f ), (4) where the linear part Lf and the nonlinear part Γ(f, f ) are given by Lf := 1 ( ( )) ( ) f 1 v M v and Γ(f, f ) = u F M M 2 vf + v M, respectively. Γ(f, f ) is not bilinear! Ref.- Duan-Fornasier-Toscani(2010), Karper-Mellet-Trivisa(2013) 20 / 29

27 Collective behavior models at particle and kinetic levels Particle system: dx i dt = v i, t > 0, i = 1,, N, dv i dt = m j 1 K(vi )(x i x j )(v j v i ), j i where 1 K(vi ) is the indicator function on the set K(v i ). Here {x i } N i=1, {v i } N i=1, {m i } N i=1 are the position, velocity, and weight of i-th particle, respectively. Kinetic equation: As a mean-field limit, we consider tf + v x f + v [F (f )f ] = 0, (x, v) R d R d, t > 0, (5) where F (f ) is a alignment force of velocities given by F (f )(x, v, t) = 1 K(v) (x y)(w v)f (y, w) dydw. R d R d 23 / 29

28 Main assumptions (H1): K(v) is globally compact, i.e., K(v) is compact and there exists a compact set K such that K(v) K for all v R d. (H2): There exists a family of closed sets v Θ(v) and a constant C such that: - K(v) Θ(v), for all v R d, - Θ(v) ε,+ Cε, for all ε (0, 1), - K(v) K(w) Θ(v) C v w,+, for v, w R d, - Θ(w) Θ(v) C v w,+, for v, w R d. Figure: A sketch of the sets K, K ε,+, and K ε, 24 / 29

29 Examples A ball with a fixed radius: K(v) B(0, r) where B(0, r) := {x R d : x r} with r > 0. A ball with a radius depending on the speed: K(v) = B(0, r( v )) where r : R + R + is bounded and Lipschitz. Θ(v) = K(v) 25 / 29

30 Examples A vision cone: K(v) = C(r, v, θ( v )) := { ( ) } x v x : x r and θ( v ) cos 1 θ( v ), x v with 0 < θ(z) C (R) satisfying θ(z) = π for 0 z 1, θ(z) is decreasing for z 1, and θ(z) θ > 0 as z +. { C(r, v, θ( v )) R(v) if v (1/2, 1), Θ(v) := C(r, v, θ( v )) else, where R(v) = [a(v), b(v)] with a(v) = r v v, b(v) = 2r( v 1) v v. 26 / 29

31 Global weak solutions & stability Definition: For a given T (0, ), f is a weak solution of (5) on the time-interval [0, T ) if and only if the following condition are satisfied: (i) f L (0, T ; (L 1 + L )(R d R d )) C([0, T ]; P 1 (R d R d )), (ii) f satisfies the equation (5) in the weak sense. Theorem(Carrillo-C.-Hauray-Salem 2016): Given an initial data satisfying f 0 (L 1 + L )(R d R d ) P 1 (R d R d ), (6) and assume further that f 0 is compactly supported in velocity. Then there exists a positive time T > 0 such that the system (5) with the sensitivity region set-valued function K(v) satisfying (H1)-(H2) admits a unique weak solution f L (0, T : (L 1 + L )(R d R d )), which is also compactly supported in velocity. Furthermore if f i, i = 1, 2 are two such solutions to the system (5) with initial data f i (0) satisfying (6), we have d 1 (f 1 (t), f 2 (t)) d 1 (f 1 (0), f 2 (0))e Ct, for t [0, T ], where C is a positive constant that depends only on the L (R d R d (0, T )) norm of f 1. Weak-strong stability! 27 / 29

32 Further extensions Second-order model: tf + v x f + v (F (f )f ) = 0, (x, v) R d R d, t > 0, where the force term F (f ) can be chosen from two different types: ψ(x y)1 K(v) (x y)h(w v)f (y, w) dydw F (f )(x, v, t) := x ϕ(x y)1 K(v) (x y)f (y, w) dydw (Cucker-Smale) (Attractive-Repulsive). Here ψ, h, and ϕ denote the communication weight, velocity coupling, and interaction potential, respectively. First-order model: tρ + x (ρu) = 0, x R d, t > 0, where the vector field u is given by u(x, t) := 1 K(w(x)) (x y) x ϕ(x y)ρ(y) dy, R d and ϕ W 1, (R d ) and w is a given orientational field satisfying w W 1, (R d ) and w w 0 > / 29
