From the many-body quantum dynamics to the Vlasov equation
We review some results on the joint mean-field and semiclassical limit of the fermionic N-body Schrödinger dynamics leading to the Vlasov equation, which is a model in kinetic theory for charged or gravitating particles. The results we present include the case of singular interactions and provide explicit estimates on the convergence rate, using the Hartree-Fock theory for interacting fermions as a bridge between many-body and Vlasov dynamics.
