The derivation of swarming models: mean-field limit and Wasserstein distances -- Non-smooth evolution models in crowd dynamics: mathematical and numerical issues -- Pedestrians moving in the dark: balancing measures and playing games on lattices -- Stochastic competition between two populations in space -- Discrete and continuum dynamics of reacting and interacting individuals -- Multiscale crowd dynamics: modeling and theory.

Sommario/riassunto

Multiscale models in social applications combine mean-field and kinetic equations with either microscopic or macroscopic level descriptions. In this book the reader will find not only a wide spectrum of multiscale analysis results (like convergence proofs), but also practically important information such as derivations of mean-field equations, methods to handle hard contacts numerically, to model group behavior, to quantitative estimate microscopic/macroscopic segregation of competing species, to quantitative understand the limits of validity of mass-action kinetics for simple reactions.
