We consider an abstract mixed variational problem governed by a nonlinear operator $A$ and a bifunctional $J$, in a real reflexive Banach space $X$. The operator $A$ is assumed to be continuous, Lipschitz continuous on each bounded subset…
The Boltzmann equation becomes invalid as the size of gas molecules is comparable with the average intermolecular distance. A better description is provided by the Enskog collision operator, which takes into account the finite size of gas…

Nonlinear action of the group of spatial rotations on commuting components of a position operator of a massless particle of arbitrary helicity is studied. It is shown that linearization of this action necessarily leads to the Pryce operator…
We present a more refined version of rational extended thermodynamics of rarefied polyatomic gases in which molecular rotational and vibrational relaxation processes are treated individually. In this case we need a triple hierarchy of the…
We consider kinetic models for a multi component gas mixture without chemical reactions. In the literature, one can find two types of BGK models in order to describe gas mixtures. One type has a sum of BGK type interaction terms in the…

In this paper, we establish the existence of the unique global-in-time classical solutions to the multi-component BGK model suggested in \cite{mixmodel} when the initial data is a small perturbation of global equilibrium. For this, we…
We use a probabilistic approach to study the rate of convergence to equilibrium for a collisionless (Knudsen) gas in dimension equal to or larger than 2. The use of a coupling between two stochastic processes allows us to extend and refine,…
We study the dynamics of entanglement in spin gases. A spin gas consists of a (large) number of interacting particles whose random motion is described classically while their internal degrees of freedom are described quantum-mechanically.…
We study a multi--particle model including a kinetic energy and a non linear local self-interaction, both in the bosonic and fermionic cases. In both cases, we prove that the model is well-posed if the number of particles is large enough.…
We calculate the frequencies and damping rates of the low-lying collective modes of a Bose-Einstein condensed gas at nonzero temperature. We use a complex nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation to determine the dynamics of the condensate atoms,…
Starting from the Bogoliubov diagonalization for the Hamiltonian of a weakly interacting Bose gas under the presence of a Bose-Enstein Condensate, we derive the kinetic equation for the Bogoliubov excitations. Without dropping any of the…
We explain how the kinetic theory of L. Boltzmann is applied to weakly nonlinear wave equations.
We consider weighted composition operators, that is operators of the type $g \mapsto w \cdot g \circ f$, acting on spaces of Lipschitz functions. Bounded weighted composition operators, as well as some compact weighted composition…
