Homogeneous Boltzmann Equation in Quantum Relativistic Kinetic Theory

Small book cover: Homogeneous Boltzmann Equation in Quantum Relativistic Kinetic Theory

Homogeneous Boltzmann Equation in Quantum Relativistic Kinetic Theory
by

Publisher: American Mathematical Society
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.
