Kinetic equation for the weakly nonlinear Schroedinger equation
ENS Salle WSince the basic work of Peierls it is common consensus thatweakly nonlinear wave equations with random initial data can be wellapproximated by a kinetic equation. I will explain the precise conjecture.I will also discuss my recent joint work with J. Lukkarinen, where wecontrol the kinetic limit in special cases for the lattice nonlinearSchroedinger equation.
