Keywords

Partial differential equations, Kinetic theory of gases, Boltzmann equation

I study the Boltzmann equation, which is fundamental for the modelling of a rarefied gas. In particular, my study is concerned with the so-called non cut-off case, which has been extensively analysed for the last 15 years. I am interested in the existence, uniqueness, and other properties of a solution to the Boltzmann equation. I also study some other kinetic equations.
