Ultra-analytic effect of Cauchy problem for a class of kinetic equations (Q1025011)

The authors study the smoothing effect of the Cauchy problem for three kinetic equations. The first one is the spatially homogeneous nonlinear Landau equation with Maxwellian molecules \[ f_t=Q(f,f),\nu \in\mathbb{R}^d,t>0,\;f|_{t=0}=f_0. \] They prove that for \(f_0\) in a certain weighted function space, for any \(t>0\) we have \(f(t,\cdot)\in{\mathcal A}^{1/2}(\mathbb{R}^d)\) (space of ultra-analytic functions). The second one is the inhomogeneous linear Fokker-Planck equation \[ f_\pm+\nu\cdot \nabla_nf=\nabla_\nu\cdot(\nabla_\nu f+\nu f),(x,\nu)\in\mathbb{R}^{2d}, t>0,\quad f|_{t=0}=f_0. \] Similar to the first equation, we have the following ultra-analytic effect: for \(f_0\) in a weighted function space such any \(t>0\), \(f(t, \cdot,\cdot)\in{\mathcal A}^{1/2}(\mathbb{R}^{2d})\). Finally, the third equation considered is a linearized (around the normalized Maxwellian distribution \(\mu (\nu)=(2\pi)^{-d/2}e^{-|\nu|^2/2)})\) version of spatially inhomogeneous Landau equation \[ g_t+\nu\cdot \nabla_xg=Q(\mu,g),(x,\nu)\in\mathbb{R}^{2d},\;t>0,\;g|_{x=0} =g_0. \] In this case, for \(g_0\) in a weighted function space and any \(t>a\), we have \(g(t,\cdot,\cdot)\in{\mathcal A}^1(\mathbb{R}^{2d})\) (space of analytic functions).
