We establish the global-in-time existence of weak solutions to a variant of the BGK model proposed by Bouchut [J. Stat. Phys., 95, (1999), 113--170] which leads to the barotropic Euler equations in the hydrodynamic limit. Our existence…
Recently, a hydrodynamic description of local equilibrium dynamics in quantum integrable systems was discovered. In the diffusionless limit, this is equivalent to a certain "Bethe-Boltzmann" kinetic equation, which has the form of an…

The hydrodynamic limit for the Boltzmann equation is studied in the case when the limit system, that is, the system of Euler equations contains contact discontinuities. When suitable initial data is chosen to avoid the initial layer, we…
