“Local well-posedness for the periodic Boltzmann equation with constant collision kernel”<\/p>\n
Abstract: The Boltzmann equation holds fundamental importance in the kinetic theory of gases and plasmas, describing the behavior of a dilute gas of identical particles in a specific scaling limit. Recent studies by Chen, Denlinger, Pavlovic, Holmer, Shen, and Zhang have focused on the equation’s well-posedness, both with and without the Wigner transform, establishing results in Euclidean spaces using methods from nonlinear dispersive PDEs. In this talk, we focus on the periodic Boltzmann equation with a constant collision kernel. We will introduce a novel Strichartz estimate that facilitates the proof of local well-posedness (LWP) for the Boltzmann equation, marking the first LWP result in the periodic case for thresholds below $d\/2$, which is the limit for energy methods.<\/p>\n
