1st SUMMER SCHOOL ON
''METHODS AND MODELS OF KINETIC THEORY''
(M&MKT 2002)
Porto Ercole (Grosseto, Italy) - 2002

Topics:    Among the tools mostly used for the study of the Boltzmann equation, the probabilistic interpretation on one hand and the systematic use of the Fourier transform on the other hand, have proven to be extremely powerful.
 

1st course:   Fourier Methods for the Boltzmann Equation
Laurent Desvillettes, Ecole Normale Supérieure de Cachan, France
 

2nd course:   Probabilistic Methods in Kinetic Theory
Eric Carlen, Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta Georgia, USA
 

Seminars:

A. Bobylev:    Self-similar solutions of the Boltzmann equation for elastic and inelastic interactions

M. Carvalho:    Entropic convergence for the Boltzmann equation

C. Cercignani:   Similarity solutions and asymptotics for the space homogeneous Boltzmann equation

I. Gamba:    On the time evolution and  steady states for diffusive  inelastic Boltzmann equations

B. Wennberg:    Strong convergence for the spatially homogeneous Boltzmann equation for Fermi Dirac particles
