Abstract

The paper is concerned with the spatially homogeneous isotropic Boltzmann equation for Bose-Einstein particles with quantum collision kernel where the interaction potential ϕ(x)\phi({\bf x}) can be approximately written as the delta function plus a certain attractive potential such that the Fourier transform ϕ^\widehat{\phi} of ϕ\phi behaves like 0ϕ^(ξ)const.ξη0 \le \widehat{\phi}(\xi) \le {\rm const.} |\xi|^{\eta} for ξ<<1|\xi|<<1 for some constant η1\eta\ge 1. We prove that in this case, there is no condensation in finite time for all temperatures and all solutions, and thus it is completely different from the case ϕ^(ξ)const.ξη\widehat{\phi}(\xi) \ge {\rm const.}|\xi|^{\eta} for ξ<<1|\xi|<<1 with 0η<1/40\le \eta<1/4 as considered in \cite{Cai-Lu}. For a class of initial data that have some nice integrability near the origin, we also get some regularity, stability and LL^{\infty} estimate.
