Results on optimal rate of convergence to equilibrium for spatially homogeneous Maxwellian gases
This chapter aims to provide a unified presentation of some recent studies (see [], [], [], [] and []) on the convergence to equilibrium of the solution of Boltzmann's equation for Maxwellian pseudomolecules and, in particular, of the solution of Kac's analog of Boltzmann's equation. The main feature of these …
