The paper presents a solution to the Boltzmann kinetic equation based on the construction of its discrete conservative model. Discrete analogue of the collision integral is presented as a contraction of a tensor, which is independent from…
The evolution of a gas can be described by different models depending on the observation scale. A natural question, raised by Hilbert in his sixth problem, is whether these models provide consistent predictions. In particular, for rarefied…

A challenging problem in solving the Boltzmann equation numerically is that the velocity space is approximated by a finite region. Therefore, most methods are based on a truncation technique and the computational cost is then very high if…
We propose a formal extension of thermodynamics and kinetic theories to a larger class of entropy functionals. Kinetic equations associated to Boltzmann, Fermi, Bose and Tsallis entropies are recovered as a special case. This formalism…
We study long-range interacting systems perturbed by external stochastic forces. Unlike the case of short-range systems, where stochastic forces usually act locally on each particle, here we consider perturbations by external stochastic…

For a massless gas with constant cross section in a homogeneous, isotropically expanding spacetime we reformulate the relativistic Boltzmann equation as a set of non-linear coupled moment equations. For a particular initial condition this…
The applicability of stochastic differential equations to thermodynamics is considered and a new form, different from the classical Ito and Stratonovich forms, is introduced. It is shown that the new presentation is more appropriate for the…
The Boltzmann equation is essential for gas thermodynamics,as it models how the molecular density distribution $F(t,x,v)$ changes over time. However, existing research primarily focuses on the single species Boltzmann equation, while…
Many-body quantum-mechanical stationary states that have real valued wavefunctions are shown to satisfy a classical conservation of energy equation with a kinetic energy function. The terms in the equation depend on the probability…
We consider weak solutions of the inhomogeneous non-cutoff Boltzmann equation in a bounded domain with any of the usual physical boundary conditions: in-flow, bounce-back, specular-reflection and diffuse-reflection. When the mass, energy…
The purpose of the present effort is threefold. Firstly, it is shown that there exists a principle, that we call Kinetical Interaction Principle (KIP), underlying the non linear kinetics in particle systems, independently on the picture…
Dense matter is usually described using some kind of mean field theory (MFT) model based on Boltzmann-Gibbs (BG) extensive statistics. However, in many cases the conditions justifying the use of BG statistics are not fulfilled because the…
