A McKean–Vlasov equation with positive feedback and blow-ups

B Hambly, S Ledger, A Søjmark - The Annals of Applied Probability, 2019 - JSTOR
We study a McKean–Vlasov equation arising from a mean-field model of a particle system
with positive feedback. As particles hit a barrier, they cause the other particles to jump in the …
