Abstract:
We focus on the statistical mechanics of systems of N points with Coulomb interactions in general dimension, which corresponds on the situation with temperature in the above abstract. We discuss the free energy expansion as well as a description of the microscopic behavior of the system as N tends to infinity via a Large Deviations Principle and a Central Limit Theorem for fluctuations, and give an idea of tools and methods used to prove the results.Date: Tuesday, October 16, 2018
