Abstract: We establish pointwise polynomial decay estimates in velocity space for the spatially inhomogeneous Boltzmann equation without cutoff, in the case of hard potentials ($gamma+2s>2$), under the assumption that the mass, energy, and entropy densities are bounded above, and the mass density is bounded below. These estimates are self-generating, i.e. they do not require corresponding decay assumptions on the initial data. Our results extend the recent work of Imbert-Mouhot-Silvestre (arXiv:1804.06135), which addressed the case of moderately soft potentials ($gamma+2sin[0,2]$).
