Item Open Access On Mean Field Limits for Dynamical Systems(Journal of Statistical Physics, 2016-07) Boers, N; Pickl, P© 2015, Springer Science+Business Media New York. We present a purely probabilistic proof of propagation of molecular chaos for N-particle systems in dimension 3 with interaction forces scaling like 1 / | q| 3 λ - 1 with λ smaller but close to one and cut-off at q= N - 1 / 3 . The proof yields a Gronwall estimate for the maximal distance between exact microscopic and approximate mean-field dynamics. This can be used to show weak convergence of the one-particle marginals to solutions of the respective mean-field equation without cut-off in a quantitative way. Our results thus lead to a derivation of the Vlasov equation from the microscopic N-particle dynamics with force term arbitrarily close to the physically relevant Coulomb- and gravitational forces.
