Stable steady states of galactic dynamics in relativistic scalar
gravity
The Nordström-Vlasov system is a Lorentz invariant generalization
of the Vlasov-Poisson system in the gravitational case. As such,
it provides a model for the dynamics of the stars in a galaxy (or
galaxies in a cluster) taking into account large velocities
relativistic effects in the system.
In this talk I will sketch the proof of non-linear stability of a
class of stationary solutions (isotropic polytropes) to the
Nordstr¨on-Vlasov system against general perturbations, provided
the mass of the steady state is sufficiently large. The proof is
by showing that these solutions minimize the energy functional
under suitable constraints.
This is a joint work with Óscar Sánchez and Juan Soler.
