The Hartree and Vlasov equations at positive density
Résumé
We consider the nonlinear Hartree and Vlasov equations around a translation-invariant (homogeneous) stationary state in infinite volume, for a short range interaction potential. For both models, we consider time-dependent solutions which have a finite relative energy with respect to the reference translation-invariant state. We prove the convergence of the Hartree solutions to the Vlasov ones in a semi-classical limit and obtain as a by-product global well-posedness of the Vlasov equation in the (relative) energy space.
