The Boltzmann equation on smooth and cylindrical domains with Maxwell boundary conditions

In this article we study the well-posedness of the Boltzmann equation near its hydrodynamic limit on a bounded domain. We consider two types of domains, namely $C^2$ domains with Maxwell boundary conditions where the accommodation coefficient is a continuous space dependent function $\iota \in [\iota_0,1]$ for any $\iota_0 \in (0,1]$, or cylindrical domains with diffusive reflection on the bases of the cylinder and specular reflection on the rest of the boundary. Furthermore, we work with polynomial, stretched exponential and inverse gaussian weights to construct the Cauchy theory near the equilibrium. We remark that all methods are quantitative thus all the constants are constructive and tractable.
