In this article we develop a new abstract strategy for proving ergodicity with explicit computable rate of convergence for diffusions associated with a degenerate Kolmogorov operator L. A crucial point is that the evolution operator L may…

We propose a new stabilised finite element method for the classical Kolmogorov equation. The latter serves as a basic model problem for large classes of kinetic-type equations and, crucially, is characterised by degenerate diffusion. The…

Considerable progress has recently been made with geometrical approaches to understanding and controlling small out-of-equilibrium systems, but a mathematically rigorous foundation for these methods has been lacking. Towards this end, we…

We study the degenerate linear Boltzmann equation inside a bounded domain with a generalized diffuse reflection at the boundary and variable temperature, including the Maxwell boundary conditions with the wall Maxwellian or heavy-tailed…

This paper is devoted to Fokker-Planck and linear kinetic equations with very weak confinement corresponding to a potential with an at most logarithmic growth and no integrable stationary state. Our goal is to understand how to measure the…

This paper deals with the study of some particular kinetic models, where the randomness acts only on the velocity variable level. Usually, the Markovian generator cannot satisfy any Poincar\'e's inequality. Hence, no Gronwall's lemma can…

We first prove a homogenization result for the fundamental solution of the linear kinetic Fokker Planck equation. We show that this solution converges, in an averaged $L^2$ sense, to the fundamental solution of an effective heat equation…

The systematic expansion method of the solution of the Fokker-Planck equation is developed by generalizing the formulation proposed in [J. Phys. A50, 325001 (2017)]. Using this method, we obtain a new formula to calculate the mean work…
