Abstract |
In 2009 Clement Mouhot and I solved an old problem of mathematical physics: give a sound logical basis to Landau damping, which is the property of a plasma to spontaneously damp electric perturbations even though there is no friction or entropy increase. I will explain some of the key ingredients, and how this research was taken back and improved by Nader Masmoudi, Jacob Bedrossian and collaborators to make some progress in tough problems of fluid mechanics. |
