Non linear stability of spherical gravitational systems described by the Vlasov-Poisson equation
Séminaire Laurent Schwartz — EDP et applications (2011-2012), Exposé no. 18, 17 p.

In this work, we prove the nonlinear stability of galaxy models derived from the three dimensional gravitational Vlasov Poisson system, which is a canonical model in astrophysics to describe the dynamics of galactic clusters.
