Abstract

Diffusive limit of the Vlasov-Poisson-Boltzmann system without angular cutoff in the framework of perturbation around global Maxwellian still remains open. By employing the weighted energy method with a newly introduced weight function wl(α,β)w_l(\alpha,\beta) and some novel treatments, we solve this problem for the full range of non-cutoff potentials γ>3\gamma>-3 and 0<s<10<s<1. Uniform estimate with respect to the Knudsen number ε(0,1]\varepsilon \in (0,1] is established globally in time, which eventually leads to the global existence of solutions to the Vlasov-Poisson-Boltzmann system without angular cutoff for the full range of non-cutoff potentials and hydrodynamic limit to the two-fluid incompressible Navier-Stokes-Fourier-Poisson system with Ohm's law. As a byproduct, this approach also extends the global existence results of previous studies on the Vlasov-Poisson-Boltzmann system without angular cutoff to the full range of non-cutoff potentials γ>3\gamma>-3 and 0<s<10<s<1.
