Abstract
Gomes and Valdinoci have introduced a time-step approximation scheme for a viscous version of Aubry-Mather theory; this scheme is a variant of that of Jordan, Kinderlehrer and Otto. Gangbo and Tudorascu have shown that the Vlasov equation can be seen as an extension of Aubry-Mather theory, in which the configuration space is the space of probability measures, i. e. the different distributions of infinitely many particles on a manifold. Putting the two things together, we show that Gomes and Valdinoci's theorem carries over to a viscous version of the Vlasov equation. In this way, we shall recover a theorem of J. Feng and T. Nguyen, but by a different and more "elementary" proof.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
