Hydrodynamic limits from the self-organized kinetic system for body attitude coordination

Naping Guo, Yi-Long Luo

TL;DR

This work rigorously connects a kinetic model of body-attitude coordination (SOKB) to a macroscopic hydrodynamic description (SOHB) under a constant-intensity coordination regime. It employs a generalized collision invariant (GCI)-based Hilbert expansion to derive the leading-order equilibrium $f_0=\rho_0 M_{\Lambda_0}$ and the macroscopic SOHB equations for $(\rho_0,\Lambda_0)$, while using a micro–macro decomposition and a stereographic projection to handle the $SO(3)$-geometry and obtain uniform-in-$\epsilon$ estimates for the remainder. A key technical ingredient is the coercivity of the linearized operator $\mathcal{L}_{M_{\Lambda_0}}$ together with a Poincaré inequality on $SO(3)$, which, under the diffusion-dominated regime $d > \frac{25 \sqrt[4]{3} \nu_0}{c_1 \lambda_0}$, allows absorption of error terms and closure of high-order energy bounds. The paper also establishes local well-posedness of the SOHB system via a stereographic projection that removes coordinate singularities, enabling a symmetric-hyperbolic treatment. Overall, this work provides the first analytically rigorous justification of the SOKB-to-SOHB modeling and its hydrodynamic limit, with implications for rigorous analysis of other self-organized kinetic models and their macroscopic descriptions.

Abstract

The self-organized kinetic system for body attitude coordination (SOKB) was recently derived by Degond et al. (Math. Models Methods Appl. Sci. 27(6), 1005-1049, 2017). This system describe a new collective motion for multi-agents dynamics, where each agent is described by its position and body attitude: agents travel at a constant speed in a given direction and their body can rotate round it adopting different configurations (representing by rotation matrix in $\mathrm{SO(3)}$). In this paper, we study the hydrodynamic limit of the scaled SOKB system with the constant intensity of coordination by employing the Generalized Collision Invariants (GCI)-based Hilbert expansion approach. The limit is the self-organized hydrodynamic model for body attitude coordination (SOHB). In spherical coordinates, the SOHB system is singular. To avoid this coordinate singularity, we transfer SOHB system into a non-singular form by stereographic projection. This work provides the first analytically rigorous justification of the modeling and asymptotic analysis in Degond et al. (Math. Models Methods Appl. Sci. 27(6), 1005-1049, 2017).

Key Result

Theorem 1.1

Let integer $m \geq 3$ and constant $\rho_* > 0$. Let the function $\rho^{in} (x) > 0$ satisfy Given the functions $\phi_{i}^{in}(x) \,, \ \theta_{i}^{in}(x) \in H^m_x$$(i = 1,2,3)$ such that the unit column vector fields obeying $\Omega^{in} \cdot \mathbf{u}^{in} = \mathbf{u}^{in} \cdot \mathbf{v}^{in} = \mathbf{v}^{in} \cdot \Omega^{in} = 0$, namely, $\Lambda^{in} = (\Omega^{in}, \mathbf{u}^{i
