An example of non - uniqueness for solutions to thehomogeneous Boltzmann equation
نویسنده
چکیده
The paper deals with the spatially homogeneous Boltzmann equation for hard potentials. An example is given which shows that, even though it is known that there is only one solution that conserves energy, there may be other solutions for which the energy is increasing; uniqueness holds if and only if energy is assumed to be conserved

On existence and uniqueness of solutions of a nonlinear Volterra-Fredholm integral equation
In this paper we investigate the existence and uniqueness for Volterra-Fredholm type integral equations and extension of this type of integral equations. The result is obtained by using the coupled fixed point theorems in the framework of Banach space $ X=C([a,b],mathbb{R})$. Finally, we give an example to illustrate the applications of our results.
متن کاملExiststence and uniqueness of positive solution for a class of boundary value problem including fractional differential equation
In this paper we investigate a kind of boundary value problem involving a fractional differential equation. We study the existence of positive solutions of the problem that fractional derivative is the Reimann-Liouville fractional derivative. At first the green function is computed then it is proved that the green function is positive. We present necessary and sufficient conditions for existen...
متن کاملSome New Existence, Uniqueness and Convergence Results for Fractional Volterra-Fredholm Integro-Differential Equations
This paper demonstrates a study on some significant latest innovations in the approximated techniques to find the approximate solutions of Caputo fractional Volterra-Fredholm integro-differential equations. To this aim, the study uses the modified Adomian decomposition method (MADM) and the modified variational iteration method (MVIM). A wider applicability of these techniques are based on thei...
متن کاملThe Newtonian limit of the relativistic Boltzmann equation
The relativistic Boltzmann equation for a constant differential cross section and with periodic boundary conditions is considered. The speed of light appears as a parameter c>c0 for a properly large and positive c0. A local existence and uniqueness theorem is proved in an interval of time independent of c>c0 and conditions are given such that in the limit c→+∞ the solutions converge, in a suita...
متن کاملStability and uniqueness for the spatially homogeneous Boltzmann equation with long-range interactions
Abstract. In this paper, we prove some a priori stability estimates (in weighted Sobolev spaces) for the spatially homogeneous Boltzmann equation without angular cutoff (covering every physical collision kernels). These estimates are conditioned to some regularity estimates on the solutions, and therefore reduce the stability and uniqueness issue to the one of proving suitable regularity bounds...
