The quasineutral limit of the Vlasov-Poisson system
Abstract: We shall review a few recent results about the quasineutral limit of the Vlasov-Poisson system. This is a singular limit in which the Poisson equation degenerates and which gives rise to singular non-linear PDEs that are ill-posed in general.
