    Abstract:    A  large  class  of  stochastic  partial  differential  equations  can  be 
  
 
  
    interpreted  as  modeling  the  evolution  of  mass  distributions.  The  solutions 
  
 
  
    of  these  stochastic  equations  can  frequently  be  represented  in  terms  of 
  
 
  
    countable  systems  of  interacting  particles.  The  behavior  of  the  particle 
  
 
  
    representations  may  be  easier  to  understand  than  that  of  the  original  SPDE. 
  
 
  
    Examples  of  representations  of  this  type  will  be  given  and  the  use  of  these 
  
 
  
    representations  for  model  derivation  and  approximation  and  proofs  of 
  
 
  
    existence  and  uniqueness  will  be  illustrated.  The  talk  will  begin  with 
  
 
  
    particle  models  given  by  deterministic  ordinary  differential  equations 
  
 
  
    adding  complexity  until  we  have  nonlinear  stochastic  partial  differential 
  
 
  
    equations.
