On the Boltzmann equation, quantitative studies and hydrodynamical limits
Briant, Marc (University of CambridgeDepartment of Pure Mathematics and Mathematical StatisticsCambridge Centre for Analysis, 2014-11-11)The present thesis deals with the mathematical treatment of kinetic theory and focuses more precisely on the Boltzmann equation. We investigate several properties of the solutions to the latter equation: their positivity ...

On the Cauchy Problem for the Homogeneous Boltzmann-Nordheim Equation for Bosons: Local Existence, Uniqueness and Creation of Moments
Briant, Marc; Einav, Amit (SpringerJournal of Statistical Physics, 2016)The Boltzmann-Nordheim equation is a modification of the Boltzmann equation, based on physical considerations, that describes the dynamics of the distribution of particles in a quantum gas composed of bosons or fermions. ...
