Abstract: We use a probabilistic approach to study the rate of convergence to equilibrium for a collisionless (Knudsen) gas in dimension equal to or larger than 2. The use of a coupling between two stochastic processes allows us to extend and refine, in total variation distance, the polynomial rate of convergence given in [AG11] and [KLT13]. This is, to our knowledge, the first quantitative result in collisionless kinetic theory in dimension equal to or larger than 2 that does not require any symmetry of the domain, nor a monokinetic regime. Our study is also more general in terms of reflection at the boundary: we allow for rather general diffusive reflections and for a specular reflection component.
