We explain how the kinetic theory of L. Boltzmann is applied to weakly nonlinear wave equations.
We introduce a class of Boltzmann equations on the real line, which constitute extensions of the classical Kac caricature. The collisional gain operators are defined by smoothing transformations with quite general properties. By…
We present cosmological perturbations of kinetic components based on relativistic Boltzmann equations in the context of generalized gravity theories. Our general theory considers an arbitrary number of scalar fields generally coupled with…
To test kinetic theories, simple and practical setups are proposed. It turns out that these setups cannot be treated by Boltzmann's equation. An alternative method, called the path-integral approach, is then employed and a number of…
The article discusses some of the latest advances in the mathematical understanding of the nature of kinetic equations that describe the collective behavior of many-particle systems with collisional dynamics.
We develop a perturbation method that generalizes an approach proposed recently to treat velocity--dependent quantum--mechanical models. In order to test present approach we apply it to some simple trivial and nontrivial examples.
In this paper we study a new generalization of the kinetic equation emerging in run-and-tumble models. We show that this generalization leads to a wide class of generalized fractional kinetic (GFK) and telegraph-type equations depending by…
We introduce in this paper a new approach to the problem of the convergence to equilibrium for kinetic equations. The idea of the approach is to prove a 'weak' coercive estimate, which implies exponential or polynomial convergence rate. Our…
A covariant Fokker-Planck type equation for a simple gas and an equation for the Brownian motion are derived from a relativistic kinetic theory based on the Boltzmann equation. For the simple gas the dynamic friction four-vector and the…
