Global bounded solutions to the Boltzmann equation for a polyatomic gas
In this paper we consider the Boltzmann equation modelling the motion of a polyatomic gas where the integration collision operator in comparison with the classical one involves an additional internal energy variable $I\in\mathbb{R}_+$ and a parameter $\delta\geq 2$ standing for the degree of freedom. In perturbation framework, we establish the …
