In this paper, we study a time discrete scheme for the initial value problem of the ES-BGK kinetic equation. Numerically solving these equations are challenging due to the nonlinear stiff collision (source) terms induced by small mean free…
We are concerned with discretisations of the classical Kolmogorov equation by a standard space-time discontinuous Galerkin method. {The} Kolmogorov equation serves as simple, yet rich enough in the present context, model problem for a wide…
In this article we extend the modern, powerful and simple abstract Hilbert space strategy for proving hypocoercivity that has been developed originally by Dolbeault, Mouhot and Schmeiser. As well-known, hypocoercivity methods imply an…
The embedding of the equations of polyconvex elastodynamics to an augmented symmetric hyperbolic system provides in conjunction with the relative entropy method a robust stability framework for approximate solutions. We devise here a model…

The ellipsoidal BGK model (ES-BGK) is a generalized version of the BGK model of the Boltzmann equation designed to yield the correct Prandtl number in the Navier-Stokes limit. In this paper, we make two observations on the entropy…
Entropy stable methods have become increasingly popular in the field of computational fluid dynamics. They often work by satisfying some form of a discrete entropy inequality: a discrete form of the 2nd law of thermodynamics. Schemes which…
For an arbitrary parameter $p\in [1,+\infty]$, we consider the problem of exponential stabilization in the spatial $L^{p}$-norm, and $W^{1,p}$-norm, respectively, for a class of anti-stable linear parabolic PDEs with space-time-varying…
We propose a BGK-type kinetic model for relativistic reactive gas mixtures. This model serves as a computationally tractable yet physically consistent alternative to the corresponding Boltzmann equation. The relaxation operator is…

We establish $L^2$-exponential decay properties for linear dissipative kinetic equations, including the time-relaxation and Fokker-Planck models, in bounded spatial domains with general boundary conditions that may not conserve mass. Their…
We develop a method, based on a Bochner-type identity, to obtain estimates on the exponential rate of decay of the relative entropy from equilibrium of Markov processes in discrete settings. When this method applies the relative entropy…
We study the fiber Lyapunov exponents of step skew-product maps over a complete shift of $N$, $N\ge2$, symbols and with $C^1$ diffeomorphisms of the circle as fiber maps. The systems we study are transitive and genuinely nonhyperbolic,…
This book is an extension of my doctoral dissertation, focusing on techniques for analyzing stability (dissipativity) and achieving stabilization of linear systems that are characterized by non-trivial distributed delays. It specifically…
We establish a new class of entropy structures for \(3\)-wave kinetic equations with a broad family of interaction weights. Unlike the classical entropies arising from detailed balance, these estimates are generated by a one-sided algebraic…
The classification of the ground-state phases of complex one-dimensional electronic systems is considered in the context of a fixed-point strategy. Examples are multichain Hubbard models, the Kondo-Heisenberg model, and the one-dimensional…
