Derivation of Hydrodynamic limits from either Liouville equations or Kinetic Models


Abstract:

Formally classical hydrodynamic equations can be derived both from Liouville equations or in some cases Kinetic models. In these derivation un certain number of problems remain open or challenging especially when irreversibility appears. On simple models I want to compare the effect of ergodicity and randomness in the appearance of such irreversibility.
