Madelung version of Schrödinger: a link between classical and quantum mechanics

This week I am at the Wolfgang Pauli Institute (WPI) in Vienna for the summer school on “Schrödinger equations”. Several interesting talks on or related to Schrödinger, including those of Y. Brenier on Madelung equations, F. Golse on mean field and classical limits of N-body quantum system, P. Germain on the derivation of the kinetic wave equation, C. Bardos on Maxwell-Boltzmann relation for electrons, F. Nier on Bosonic mean field dynamics, among others (still two days to go!). I also spoke on the Grenier’s iterative scheme, as discussed in my previous blog.
