Quantifying the hydrodynamic limit of Vlasov-type equations with alignment and nonlocal forces. (English) Zbl 1483.35267

Summary: In this paper, we quantify the asymptotic limit of collective behavior kinetic equations arising in mathematical biology modeled by Vlasov-type equations with nonlocal interaction forces and alignment. More precisely, we investigate the hydrodynamic limit of a kinetic Cucker-Smale flocking model with confinement, nonlocal interaction, and local alignment forces, linear damping and diffusion in velocity. We first discuss the hydrodynamic limit of our main equation under strong local alignment and diffusion regime, and we rigorously derive the isothermal Euler equations with nonlocal forces. We also analyze the hydrodynamic limit corresponding to strong local alignment without diffusion. In this case, the limiting system is pressureless Euler-type equations. Our analysis includes the Coulomb interaction potential for both cases and explicit estimates on the distance towards the limiting hydrodynamic equations. The relative entropy method is the crucial technology in our main results, however, for the case without diffusion, we combine a modulated macroscopic kinetic energy with the bounded Lipschitz distance to deal with the nonlocality in the interaction forces. The existence of weak and strong solutions to the kinetic and fluid equations is also obtained. We emphasize that the existence of global weak solution with the needed free energy dissipation for the kinetic model is established.
