ON THE MATHEMATICAL THEORY OF THE DYNAMICS OF SWARMS VIEWED AS COMPLEX SYSTEMS

This paper deals with the modeling and simulation of swarms viewed as a living, hence complex, system. The approach is based on methods of kinetic theory and statistical mechanics, where interactions at the microscopic scale are nonlinearly additive and modeled by stochastic games.
