Existence of self-similar profile for a kinetic annihilation model

چکیده
We show the existence of a self-similar solution for a modified Boltzmann equation describing probabilistic ballistic annihilation. Such a model describes a system of hard spheres such that, whenever two particles meet, they either annihilate with probability α ∈ (0, 1) or they undergo an elastic collision with probability 1− α. For such a model, the number of particles, the linear momentum and the kinetic energy are not conserved. We show that, for α smaller than some explicit threshold value α1, a self-similar solution exists.

Uniqueness of the self-similar profile for a kinetic annihilation model
We prove the uniqueness of the self-similar profile solution for a modified Boltzmann equation describing probabilistic ballistic annihilation. Such a model describes a system of hard spheres such that, whenever two particles meet, they either annihilate with probability α ∈ (0, 1) or they undergo an elastic collision with probability 1 − α. The existence of a self-similar profile for α smaller...
متن کاملStatement of the Negative Theory of Ethics in Sadra’s Wisdom
By analyzing the issue of annihilation as the end of moral action, this article pays attention to a new interpretation of Sadra’s mystical moral system. In order to reach his ultimate happiness, man must destroy the degrees of his existence: absence of form, absence of self, and absence of spirit. These steps, which are equivalent to natural death, destruction of the human self and annihilation...

متن کاملOne-Dimensional Dissipative Boltzmann Equation: Measure Solutions, Cooling Rate, and Self-Similar Profile
This manuscript investigates the following aspects of the one dimensional dissipative Boltzmann equation associated to variable hard-spheres kernel: (1) we show the optimal cooling rate of the model by a careful study of the system satisfied by the solution’s moments, (2) give existence and uniqueness of measure solutions, and (3) prove the existence of a non-trivial self-similar profile, i.e. ...
متن کاملTHE STEFAN PROBLEM WITH KINETIC FUNCTIONS AT THE FREE BOUNDARY
This paper considers a class of one-dimensional solidification problem in which kinetic undercooling is incorporated into the temperature condition at the interface. A model problem with nonlinear kinetic law is considered. The main result is an existence theorem. The mathematical effects of the kinetic term are discussed
