Pierre Degond mainly focuses on Mathematical analysis, Statistical physics, Classical mechanics, Discretization and Limit. His research integrates issues of Compressibility and Stability in his study of Mathematical analysis. His Statistical physics study incorporates themes from Kinetic energy, Heavy traffic approximation, Fick's laws of diffusion and Fokker–Planck equation.

His Classical mechanics study combines topics in areas such as Boltzmann constant, Steady state, Electron, Magnetic field and Scaling. His Discretization research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Conservation of mass, Approximations of π and Finite element method. His Limit research incorporates themes from Probability density function, Hierarchy, Mathematical economics, Game theory and Von Mises–Fisher distribution.

His most cited work include:

  • Continuum limit of self-driven particles with orientation interaction (307 citations)
  • The weighted particle method for convection-diffusion equations. I. The case of an isotropic viscosity (257 citations)
  • Global existence for the Vlasov-Poisson equation in 3 space variables with small initial data (231 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Pierre Degond mainly investigates Statistical physics, Classical mechanics, Mathematical analysis, Limit and Kinetic energy. His Statistical physics research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Phase transition, Stability, Kinetic theory of gases and Boltzmann equation. The Boltzmann equation study combines topics in areas such as Boltzmann constant and Euler equations.

He is involved in the study of Classical mechanics that focuses on Self-propelled particles in particular. His work on Mathematical analysis is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Compressibility. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Discretization, Distribution, Plasma and Applied mathematics.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Statistical physics (30.38%)
  • Classical mechanics (27.51%)
  • Mathematical analysis (23.44%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Statistical physics (30.38%)
  • Classical mechanics (27.51%)
  • Macroscopic model (8.61%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His primary scientific interests are in Statistical physics, Classical mechanics, Macroscopic model, Limit and Phase transition. A large part of his Statistical physics studies is devoted to Thermodynamic limit. Pierre Degond works in the field of Classical mechanics, focusing on Self-propelled particles in particular.

His Limit study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Finite set, Topology, Magnetic field and Rank. His research investigates the connection with Phase transition and areas like Bifurcation which intersect with concerns in Particle, Instability and Kinetic theory of gases. Continuum is closely attributed to Mathematical analysis in his research.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • A new flocking model through body attitude coordination (43 citations)
  • Phase Transitions in a Kinetic Flocking Model of Cucker--Smale Type (42 citations)
  • Coagulation–Fragmentation Model for Animal Group-Size Statistics (35 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Mathematical analysis
  • Electron

His main research concerns Classical mechanics, Statistical physics, Macroscopic model, Phase transition and Kinetic energy. He does research in Classical mechanics, focusing on Self-propelled particles specifically. Thermodynamic limit is the focus of his Statistical physics research.

His Phase transition research also works with subjects such as

  • Bifurcation which intersects with area such as Particle dynamics, Scale and Kinetic theory of gases,
  • Particle which connect with Reynolds number, Linear stability analysis, Dipole and Point. His Kinetic energy research focuses on Flocking and how it relates to Orthonormal basis, Collective motion and Rotation group SO. His Von Mises–Fisher distribution study deals with the bigger picture of Mathematical analysis.
