On Villani's conjecture concerning entropy production for the Kac Master equation
(America Institute of Mathematical SciencesKinetic and Related Models, 2011-06-01)
In this paper we take an idea presented in recent paper by Carlen, Carvalho, Le Roux, Loss, and Villani ([3]) and push it one step forward to find an exact estimation on the entropy production. The new estimation essentially ...
