We consider a one-dimensional system consisting of a granular tracer particle of mass $M$ in a bath of thermalized particles each of mass $m$. When the mass ratio, $M/m$, is equal to the coefficient of restitution, $\alpha$, the system maps…

Grad's method is used on the linearized Boltzmann collision operator to derive the most general expressions for the collision coefficients for a multi-component, multi-temperature plasma up to rank-2. In doing so, the collision coefficients…

This paper deals with explicit spectral gap estimates for the linearized Boltzmann operator with hard potentials (and hard spheres). We prove that it can be reduced to the Maxwellian case, for which explicit estimates are already known.…

In a previous paper we derived a relation between the operator product coefficients and anomalous dimensions. We explore this relation in the $(\phi^4)_4$ theory and compute the coefficient functions in the products of $\phi^2$ and $\phi^4$…

We introduce a generalised relaxation-time-approximation form of the collision term in the Boltzmann kinetic equation that allows for using different relaxation times for elastic and inelastic collisions. The efficacy of the proposed…

The phase space of a noncanonical Hamiltonian system is partially inaccessible due to dynamical constraints (Casimir invariants) arising from the kernel of the Poisson tensor. When an ensemble of noncanonical Hamiltonian systems is allowed…

We construct a non-perturbative method to investigate the phase structure of the scalar theory at finite temperature. The derivative of the effective potential with respect to the mass square is expressed in terms of the full propagator.…
