Abstract

We consider a system of N point vortices in a bounded domain with null total circulation, whose statistics are given by the canonical Gibbs ensemble at inverse temperature β0. We prove that the space-time fluctuation field around the (constant) mean field limit satisfies when N a generalized version of two-dimensional Euler dynamics preserving the Gaussian energy-enstrophy ensemble.
