On the Cauchy Problem for the Homogeneous Boltzmann-Nordheim Equation for Bosons: Local Existence, Uniqueness and Creation of Moments
(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. ...
On the Boltzmann equation, quantitative studies and hydrodynamical limits
(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 ...
