We study a nonlocal approximation of the Fokker-Planck equation in which we can estimate the speed of convergence to equilibrium in a way which does not degenerate as we approach the local limit of the equation. This uniform estimate cannot…

In this paper, hypocoercivity methods are applied to linear kinetic equations with mass conservation and without confinement, in order to prove that the solutions have an algebraic decay rate in the long-time range, which the same as the…

This paper deals with the long time behavior of solutions to a "fractional Fokker-Planck" equation of the form $\partial_t f = I[f] + \text{div}(xf)$ where the operator $I$ stands for a fractional Laplacian. We prove an exponential in time…
