Description
From dynamics of granular media to models of biological swarming, a range of physical and biological processes can be described by particle systems involving nonlocal interactions. A key tool in the analysis of such systems is their gradient flow structure, and the resulting interplay between particle and energy methods has recently led to new developments in partial differential equations, numerical analysis, and inverse problems. In this AMS special section, we aim to bring together young researchers with leading experts to explore new connections between modeling, analysis, and numerical simulation of particle methods and nonlocal partial differential equations.
