Abstract. The topic of this meeting were non-linear partial differential
and integro-differential equations (in particular kinetic equations and their
macroscopic/fluid-dynamical limits) modeling the dynamics of many-particle
systems with applications in physics, engineering, and mathematical biol-
ogy. Typical questions of interest were the derivation of macro-models from
micro-models, the mathematical analysis (well-posedness, stability, asymp-
totic behavior of solutions), and "to a lesser extent" numerical aspects of
such equations. A highlight of this meeting was a mini-course on the recent
mathematical theory of Landau damping.
