Solutions of nonlinear kinetic equations on the level of the Navier- Stokes dynamics (Q2367479): Difference between revisions

The author establishes the existence and asymptotic behaviour theorems for the kinetic equations (Boltzmann, the Enskog and Povzner equations) under suitable smallness assumptions on the nonhydrodynamical part of the initial datum. The analysis is carried out in \(C^ 0\) setting with respect to the space variable. The solutions exist macroscopically as far as a smooth solution of the system of Navier-Stokes equations (N-SE) does and are approximated by the solution of the N-SE. It is shown also that the solutions of the kinetic equations are continuously differentiable and unique if the solution of the N-SE is unique.
