A brief introduction to the scaling limits and effective equations in kinetic theory
英文摘要:
These lecture notes provide the material for a short introductory course on effective equations for classical particle systems. They concern the basic equations in kinetic theory, written by Boltzmann and Landau, describing rarefied gases and weakly interacting plasmas respectively. These equations can be derived formally, under suitable scaling limits, taking classical particle systems as a starting point. A rigorous proof of this limiting procedure is difficult and still largely open. We discuss some mathematical problems arising in this context.
