Abstract

The Boltzmann equation is a fundamental kinetic equation that describes the dynamics of dilute gas. In this paper we study the regularity of both dynamical and steady Boltzmann equation in strictly convex domain with the Cercignani-Lampis (C-L) boundary condition. The C-L boundary condition describes the intermediate reflection law between diffuse reflection and specular reflection via two accommodation coefficients. We construct local weighted C1C^1 dynamical solution using repeated interaction through the characteristic. When we assume small fluctuation to the wall temperature and accommodation coefficients, we construct weighted C1C^1 steady solution.
