Homogeneous Boltzmann Equation in Quantum Relativistic Kinetic Theory
by M. Escobedo, S. Mischler, M.A. Valle
Publisher: American Mathematical Society 2003
Number of pages: 85
Description:
We consider some mathematical questions about Boltzmann equations for quantum particles, relativistic or non relativistic. Relevant particular cases such as Bose, Bose-Fermi, and photon-electron gases are studied. We also consider some simplifications such as the isotropy of the distribution functions and the asymptotic limits.

Non-Equilibrium Statistical Mechanicsby Gunnar Pruessner - Imperial College London
This is an attempt to deliver, within a couple of hours, a few key-concepts of non-equilibrium statistical mechanics. The goal is to develop some ideas of contemporary research. Many of the ideas are illustrated or even introduced by examples.
