| contents | We investigate the mean-field limit for interacting particle systems through a duality-based framework and obtain quantitative estimates on the convergence of marginals as well as on correlation functions. In particular, for merely square-integrable interaction forces, we derive the natural fluctuation-scale rate $\mathcal{O}(N^{-1/2})$. By introducing an iterative argument on the hierarchy of dual cumulants, we leverage this bound to recover the optimal mean-field rate $\mathcal{O}(N^{-1})$ and to obtain robust estimates on the dual cumulants, at the expense of corresponding regularity assumptions on the interaction kernel. Finally, using the relation between dual and direct correlations, we transfer these bounds to direct cumulants, yielding refined information on correlations and deviations from chaos. |
