In this work, we have derived the incompressible Euler equations from the Boltz- mann equation in the case of the initial boundary value problem, for a class of boundary conditions

In particular, the following questions have been addressed regarding steady solutions of kinetic equations of the type (1.1): (1) Existence [15, 11], (2) Uniqueness in some
More precisely, we show that if the initial data is non-negative and belongs to a uniformly local Sobolev space in the space variable with Maxwellian type decay property in the
Finally, we would like to mention that there are also some interesting results on the uniqueness for the spatially homogeneous Boltzmann equation, for example, for the Maxweillian
Uffink and Valente (2015) claim that neither the B-G limit, nor the ingoing configurations are responsible for the appearance of irreversibility. Their argu- ments are specific for
