Abstract

Existence, uniqueness and stability of kinetic and entropy solutions to the boundary value problem for the Kolmogorov-type genuinely nonlinear ultra-parabolic equation with a smooth source term is established. After this, we consider the case when the source term contains a small positive parameter and collapses to the Dirac delta-function, as this parameter tends to zero. In this case, the limiting passage from the original equation with the smooth source to the impulsive ultra-parabolic equation is fulfilled and rigorously justified. The proofs rely on the method of kinetic equation and on the compensated compactness techniques for genuinely nonlinear equations.
