چکیده

Abstract. We study the diffusion limit of the Vlasov-Poisson-Fokker-Planck System. Here, we generalize the local in time results and the two dimensional results of Poupaud-Soler [F. Poupaud and J. Soler, Math. Models Methods Appl. Sci., 10(7), 1027-1045, 2000] and Goudon [T. Goudon, Math. Models Methods Appl. Sci., 15(5), 737-752, 2005] to the case of several space dimensions. Renormalization techniques, the method of moments and a velocity averaging lemma are used to prove the convergence of free energy solutions (renormalized solutions) to the Vlasov-Poisson-FokkerPlanck system towards a global weak solution of the Drift-Diffusion-Poisson model.

On Long Time Asymptotics of the Vlasov-fokker-planck Equation and of the Vlasov-poisson-fokker-planck System with Coulombic and Newtonian Potentials

We prove that the solution of the Vlasov-Fokker-Planck equation converges to the unique stationary solution with same mass as time tends to infinity. The same result holds in the repulsive coulombic case for the Vlasov-Poisson-Fokker-Planck system; the newtonian attractive case is also studied. We establish positive and negative answers to the question of existence of a stationary solution for ...

The Vlasov-Poisson Equations as the Semiclassical Limit of the Schrödinger-Poisson Equations: A Numerical Study

In this paper, we numerically study the semiclassical limit of the SchrödingerPoisson equations as a selection principle for the weak solution of the VlasovPoisson in one space dimension. Our numerical results show that this limit gives the weak solution that agrees with the zero diffusion limit of the Fokker-Planck equation. We also numerically justify the multivalued solution given by a momen...

Smoothing Effect for the Non-linear Vlasov-poisson-fokker-planck System

We study a smoothing effect of a non-linear degenerate parabolic problem, the Vlasov-Poisson-Fokker-Planck system, in three dimensions. We prove that a solution gives rise actually to very smooth macroscopic density and force field for positive time. This is obtained by analyzing the effect of the Fokker-Planck kernel on the force term in the Vlasov equation and using classical convolution ineq...

Parabolic Limit and Stability of the Vlasov–Poisson–Fokker–Planck System

In this paper the stability of the Vlasov-Poisson-Fokker-Planck with respect to the variation of its constant parameters, the scaled thermal velocity and the scaled thermal mean free path, is analyzed. For the case in which the scaled thermal velocity is the inverse of the scaled thermal mean free path and the latter tends to zero, a parabolic limit equation is obtained for the mass density. De...

A difference scheme for the Vlasov-Poisson-Fokker-Planck system

A finite difference scheme is proposed for a relatively simple one dimensional collisional plasma model (Vlasov-Poisson-Fokker-Planck). The convergence of the scheme was established in [10]. In this article the scheme is implemented and compared with a random particle method. The difference scheme is found to be more effective, particularly at resolving the plasma density, / (£, x, v).
