We review some recent developments of Grad's approach to solving the Boltzmann equation and creating reduced description. The method of invariant manifold is put forward as a unified principle to establish corrections to Grad's equations. A…

We present a mathematical theory of dynamical fluctuations for the hard sphere gas in the Boltzmann-Grad limit. We prove that: (1) fluctuations of the empirical measure from the solution of the Boltzmann equation, scaled with the square…

These lecture notes provide the material for a short introductory course on effective equations for classical particle systems. They concern the basic equations in kinetic theory, written by Boltzmann and Landau, describing rarefied gases…

The dynamics of inelastic hard spheres is described in terms of the binary collision expansion, yielding the corresponding pseudo-Liouville equation and BBGKY hierarchy for the reduced distribution functions. Based on cluster expansion…

We consider the quantum many-body dynamics at the weak-coupling scaling. We derive rigorously the quantum Boltzmann equation, which contains the classical hard sphere model and, effectively, the inverse power law model, from the many-body…

Moment expansions are used as model reduction technique in kinetic gas theory to approximate the Boltzmann equation. Rarefied gas models based on so-called moment equations became increasingly popular recently. However, in a seminal paper…

We make a brief historical review to the moment model reduction to the kinetic equations, particularly the Grad's moment method for Boltzmann equation. The focus is on the hyperbolicity of the reduced model, which is essential to the…

In recent years it has been shown for hard sphere gas that, by retaining the correlation information, dynamical fluctuation and large deviation of empirical measure around Boltzmann equation could be proved, in addition to the classical…

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…

Kinetic equations are derived from the Bogoliubov-Born-Green-Kirkwood-Yvon (BBGKY) hierarchy for point vortex systems in an infinite plane. As the level of approximation for the Landau equation, the collision term of the kinetic equation…

The two-dimensional, periodic Lorentz gas, is the dynamical system corresponding with the free motion of a point particle in a planar system of fixed circular obstacles centered at the vertices of a square lattice in the Euclidian plane.…

It is well known that due to its divergence at large impact parameters, the Boltzmann collision integral in the kinetic equation for 3D systems of particles interacting through a $1/r$ potential must be replaced by a Balescu-Lenard-like…

We study space-time fluctuations of a hard sphere system at thermal equilibrium, and prove that the covariance converges to the solution of a linearized Boltzmann equation in the low density limit, globally in time. This result has been…

A kinetic equation for a dilute gas of hard spheres confined between two parallel plates separated a distance smaller than two particle dimeters is derived. It is a Boltzmann-like equation, which incorporates the effect of the confinement…

In this paper we complete the program initiated by the first and second authors and rigorously derive a Boltzmann-type equation that incorporates higher order collisions among gas particles. More precisely, starting from a finite…

For low density gases the validity of the Boltzmann transport equation is well established. The central object is the one-particle distribution function, $f$, which in the Boltzmann-Grad limit satisfies the Boltzmann equation. Grad and,…

It has been known since Lanford [19] that the dynamics of a hard sphere gas is described in the low density limit by the Boltzmann equation, at least for short times. The classical strategy of proof fails for longer times, even close to…

In this paper, we rigorously derive a Boltzmann equation for mixtures from the many body dynamics of two types of hard sphere gases. We prove that the microscopic dynamics of two gases with different masses and diameters is well defined,…

The inconsistency between the time-reversible Liouville equation and time-irreversible Boltzmann equation has been pointed out long ago by Loschmidt. To avoid Loschmidt's objection, here we propose a new dynamical system to model the motion…

Consider a microscopic system of $N$ hard spheres that are initially independent (modulo the exclusion condition on particle positions) and identically distributed in $\mathbb{R}^3$. When the number $N$ of particles goes to infinity and the…
