We develop a spectral method for the spatially homogeneous Boltzmann equation using Burnett polynomials in the basis functions. Using the sparsity of the coefficients in the expansion of the collision term, the computational cost is reduced…

For a general class of linear collisional kinetic models in the torus, including in particular the linearized Boltzmann equation for hard spheres, the linearized Landau equation with hard and moderately soft potentials and the…

We present a novel framework for the development of fourth-order lattice Boltzmann schemes to tackle multidimensional nonlinear systems of conservation laws. As for other numerical schemes for hyperbolic problems, high-order accuracy…

We compute the moments of the nonlinear binary collision integral in the ultrarelativistic hard-sphere approximation for an arbitrary anisotropic distribution function in the local rest frame. This anisotropic distribution function has an…

We prove global existence of smooth solutions near Maxwellians for the non-cutoff Vlasov-Poisson-Boltzmann system in the weakly collisional regime. To address the weak dissipation of the non-cutoff linearized Boltzmann operator, we develop…

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 non-classical linear transport the chord length distribution between collisions is non-exponential and attenuation does not respect Beer's law. Generalized radiative transfer (GRT) extends the classical theory to account for such…

A new integration scheme, combining the stability and the precision of usual pseudo-spectral codes with the locality of finite differences methods, is introduced. It turns out to be particularly suitable for the study of front and…

Using the test-particle method, we solve numerically the Boltzmann equation for an ultra-cold gas of trapped fermions with realistic particle number and trap geometry in the normal phase. We include a mean-field potential and in-medium…

In a previous paper (Lathouwers and Perk\'o, 2019) we have developed an efficient angular multigrid preconditioner for the Boltzmann transport equation with forward-peaked scatter modeled by the Fokker-Planck approximation. The…

Via the hierarchy of correlations, we study the Mott insulator phase of the Fermi-Hubbard model in the limit of strong interactions and derive a quantum Boltzmann equation describing its relaxation dynamics. In stark contrast to the weakly…

We propose the derivation of acoustic-type isotropic partial differential equations that are equivalent to linear lattice Boltzmann schemes with a density scalar field and a momentum vector field as conserved moments. The corresponding…

We formulate and test a hybrid fluid-Monte Carlo scheme for the treatment of elastic collisions in gases and plasmas. While our primary focus and demonstrations of applicability are for moderately collisional plasmas, as described by the…

In this paper we generalise the main result of a recent work by J. L. Cardy and the present authors concerning the bi-partite entanglement entropy between a connected region and its complement. There the expression of the leading order…

The collision frequency (also known as the inverse scattering lifetime) can be self-consistently calculated from the imaginary part of the zero-temperature elastic scattering cross-section in unconventional superconductors. We find these…

In this paper, we propose a general framework to design asymptotic preserving schemes for the Boltzmann kinetic kinetic and related equations. Numerically solving these equations are challenging due to the nonlinear stiff collision (source)…

With a sufficiently fine discretisation, the Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) mimics a second order Crank-Nicolson scheme for certain types of balance laws (Farag et al. [2021]). This allows the explicit, highly parallelisable LBM to…

In this paper, explicit method of constructing approximations (the Triangle Entropy Method) is developed for nonequilibrium problems. This method enables one to treat any complicated nonlinear functionals that fit best the physics of a…

This paper is devoted to the hydrodynamic limit for the linear Boltzmann equation, in the case of a heavy tail equilibrium and a cross section which depends on the space variable and which degenerates for large velocities, without symmetry…

In this paper, we consider the spatially inhomogeneous diffusively driven inelastic Boltzmann equation in different cases: the restitution coefficient can be constant or can depend on the impact velocity (which is a more physically relevant…
