We extend the $L^p$-theory of the Boltzmann collision operator by using classical techniques based in the Carleman representation and Fourier analysis, allied to new ideas that exploit the radial symmetry of this operator. We are then able…

In this paper, we give an easy proof of the main results of Andrews and Clutterbuck's paper [J. Amer. Math. Soc. 24 (2011), no. 3, 899--916], which gives both a sharp lower bound for the spectral gap of a Schr\"oinger operator and a sharp…

In this article we provide global subelliptic estimates for the linearized inhomogeneous Boltzmann equation without angular cutoff, and show that some global gain in the spatial direction is available although the corresponding operator is…

This paper deals with the long time behavior of solutions to the spatially homogeneous Boltzmann equation. The interactions considered are the so-called (non cut-off and non mollified) hard potentials. We prove an exponential in time…

For the Boltzmann equation with cutoff hard potentials, we construct the unique global solution converging with an exponential rate in large time to global Maxwellians not only for the specular reflection boundary condition with the bounded…

We prove sharp Lieb-Thirring inequalities for Schroedinger operators with potentials supported on a hyperplane and we show how these estimates are related to Lieb-Thirring inequalities for relativistic Schroedinger operators.

In this paper, we investigate power-bounded operators, including surjective isometries, on Banach spaces. Koehler and Rosenthal asserted that an isolated point in the spectrum of a surjective isometry on a Banach space lies in the point…

The linearized collision operator of the Boltzmann equation for single species can be written as a sum of a positive multiplication operator, the collision frequency, and a compact integral operator. This classical result has more recently,…

When applying Hamiltonian operator splitting methods for the time integration of multi-species Vlasov-Maxwell-Landau systems, the reliable and efficient numerical approximation of the Landau equation represents a fundamental component of…

We construct integral homotopy operators on a regular CR manifold and prove sharp estimates for these operators in a special Lipschitz scale.

By adapting methods of \cite{AC} we prove a sharp estimate on the expansion modulus of the gradient of the log of the parabolic kernel to the Sch\"ordinger operator with convex potential, which improves an earlier work of Brascamp-Lieb. We…

For the homogeneous Boltzmann equation with (cutoff or non cutoff) hard potentials, we prove estimates of propagation of Lp norms with a weight $(1+ |x|^2)^q/2$ ($1 < p < +\infty$, $q \in \R\_+$ large enough), as well as appearance of such…

We consider abstract non-negative self-adjoint operators on $L^2(X)$ which satisfy the finite speed propagation property for the corresponding wave equation. For such operators we introduce a restriction type condition which in the case of…

In this paper we show variant of the spectral theorem using an algebraic Jordan-Schwinger map. The advantage of this approach is that we don't have restriction of normality on the class of operators we consider. On the other side, we have…

In this note, we present a general way to construct spectral methods for the collision operator of the Boltzmann equation which preserves exactly the Maxwellian steady-state of the system. We show that the resulting method is able to…

Motivated by the open problem of large-data global existence for the non-cutoff Boltzmann equation, we introduce a model equation that in some sense disregards the anisotropy of the Boltzmann collision kernel. We refer to this model…
