The quantitative information on the spectral gaps for the linearized Boltzmann operator is of primary importance on justifying the Boltzmann model and study of relaxation to equilibrium. This work, for the first time, provides numerical…

In this paper we present a spectral collocation method for the fast evaluation of the Landau collision operator for plasma physics, which allows us to obtain spectrally accurate numerical solutions. The method is inspired by the seminal…

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…

We propose a new spectral Lagrangian based deterministic solver for the non-linear Boltzmann Transport Equation for Variable Hard Potential (VHP) collision kernels with conservative or non-conservative binary interactions. The method is…

This work addresses a central challenge in the numerical analysis of the cutoff spatially homogeneous Boltzmann equation: the development of rigorously justified, accurate numerical schemes. We present (i) a novel Fourier spectral method…

Based on the Hermite expansion of the distribution function, we introduce a Galerkin spectral method for the spatially homogeneous Boltzmann equation with the realistic inverse-power-law models. A practical algorithm is proposed to evaluate…

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…

We present a generalized, data-driven collisional operator for one-component plasmas, learned from molecular dynamics simulations, to extend the collisional kinetic model beyond the weakly coupled regime. The proposed operator features an…

Spectral methods, thanks to the high accuracy and the possibility of using fast algorithms, represent an effective way to approximate collisional kinetic equations in kinetic theory. On the other hand, the loss of some local invariants can…

We introduce a fast Fourier spectral method for the spatially homogeneous Boltzmann equation with non-cutoff collision kernels. Such kernels contain non-integrable singularity in the deviation angle which arise in a wide range of…

We use the Burnett spectral method to solve the Boltzmann equation whose collision term is modeled by separate treatments for the low-frequency part and high-frequency part of the solution. For the low-frequency part representing the sketch…

We present a spectral Petrov-Galerkin method for the Boltzmann collision operator. We expand the density distribution $f$ to high order orthogonal polynomials multiplied by a Maxwellian. By that choice, we can approximate on the whole…

We have developed a deterministic conservative solver for the inhomogeneous Fokker-Planck-Landau equation coupled with the Poisson equation, which is a {classical mean-field} primary model for collisional plasmas. Two subproblems, i.e. the…

The multispecies Landau collision operator describes the two-particle, small scattering angle or grazing collisions in a plasma made up of different species of particles such as electrons and ions. Recently, a structure preserving…

We introduce a fast Fourier spectral method to compute linearized collision operators of the Boltzmann equation for variable hard-sphere gases. While the state-of-the-art method provides a computational cost O(MN^4 log N), with N being the…

We consider a system of N particles interacting via a short-range smooth potential, in a intermediate regime between the weak-coupling and the low-density. We provide a rigorous derivation of the Linear Landau equation from this particle…

In this paper, we propose and implement a structure-preserving stochastic particle method for the Landau equation. The method is based on a particle system for the Landau equation, where pairwise grazing collisions are modeled as diffusion…

We give an explicit bound for the Wasserstein distance with quadratic cost between the solutions of Boltzmann's and Landau's equations in the case of soft and Coulomb potentials. This gives an explicit rate of convergence for the grazing…

Study of far-from-equilibrium thermalization dynamics in quantum materials, including the dynamics of different types of quasiparticles, is becoming increasingly crucial. However, the inherent complexity of either the full quantum…
