At zero temperature the Maxwellian distribution is a delta function of velocity. In this paper the Boltzmann equation is linearized around a delta function and then analyzed by a comparison method. Using these results and similar bounds for the nonlinear collision operator, a nonlinear boundary valu
In semiconductors the distributions of electrons satisfy a non-linear Boltzmann-Vlasov equation. We consider the half-space problem arising in the study of boundary layers when the mean free path tends to zero. We prove the existence and the uniqueness of the solution for any prescribed entering dis
