We consider the Landau-Coulomb equation for initial data with bounded mass, finite numbers of moments, and entropy. We show the existence of a global weak solution that has bounded Fisher information for positive times. This solution is…

We consider kinetic models for Fermi-Dirac-like particles obeying the exclusion principle. A generalized notion of Fisher information, tailored to kinetic equations of Fermi-Dirac-Fokker-Planck type, is introduced via the associated entropy…
We study the inhomogeneous Landau equation with Coulomb potential and derive a new continuation criterion: a smooth solution can be uniquely continued for as long as it remains bounded. This provides, to our knowledge, the first…
We present in this work variants of existing estimates for the Landau or Landau-Fermi-Dirac entropy dissipation, in terms of Fisher information, in the hard potential case. The specificity of those variants is that the entropy is never used…
We establish a new a priori estimate on solutions to the space-inhomogeneous Landau and Boltzmann equations. As a consequence, we prove a new continuation criterion, based on a weighted $L^\infty$-norm, without requiring bounds on the…

The paper deals with blow--up for the solutions of wave equation with nonlinear source and nonlinear boudary damping terms, posed in a bounded and regular domain. The initial data are posed in the energy space. The aim of the paper is to…
Using information theoretic quantities like the Wehrl entropy and Fisher's information measure we study the thermodynamics of the problem leading to Landau's diamagnetism, namely, a free spinless electron in a uniform magnetic field. It is…
We consider the spatially homogeneous Landau equation for multiple species with different masses. As in the single-species case, the singularity of the collision operator is determined by a parameter $\gamma \in [-3,1]$, where $\gamma = -3$…
Motivated by the question of existence of global solutions, we obtain pointwise upper bounds for radially symmetric and monotone solutions to the homogeneous Landau equation with Coulomb potential. The estimates say that blow up in the…
We study a kind of nonlinear wave equations with damping and potential, whose coefficients are both critical in the sense of the scaling and depend only on the spatial variables. Based on the earlier works, one may think there are two kinds…
This work deals with the large time behaviour of the spatially homogeneous Landau equation with Coulomb potential. Firstly, we obtain a bound from below of the entropy dissipation $D(f)$ by a weighted relative Fisher information of $f$ with…
We investigate the Landau-Coulomb equation and show an explicit blow-down mechanism for a family of initial data that are small-scale, supercritical perturbations of a Maxwellian function. We establish global well-posedness and show that…
