Hilbert’s 6th problem: the relativistic version

Abstract This contribution summarizes the state of affairs in the derivation of the Vlasov equations of relativistic kinetic theory of plasma from a microscopic classical physical model of N relativistically moving point charges that interact via classical electromagnetic fields.
