SSDW02 - Stochastic reflection

How many times can $n$ billiard balls collidein the open $d$-dimensional space? I will provide someestimates. I will explain how the above question leadsto a ``pinned billiard balls’’ model. On a large scale,the model seems to have a hydrodynamic limit.The parameters of the conjectured limit should satisfysimple nonlinear PDEs. While the existence and propertiesof the conjectured hydrodynamic limit are open questions,I will provide a quite complete analysis of the conjectured PDEs.
