An iterative solution scheme is proposed for solving the electrical double-layer interactions governed by the linearized Poisson-Boltzmann equation. The method is based on the indirect integral equation formulation with the double-layer potential kernel of the linearized Poisson-Boltzmann equation.
## Communicated by V. Lvov Approximate solutions of the non-linear Boltzmann equation, which have the structure of the linear combination of three global Maxwellians with arbitrary hydrodynamical parameters, are considered. Some sufficient conditions which allow the error between the left-and the
The linear Boltzmann equation describing electron flow in a semiconductor is considered. The Cauchy problem for space-independent solutions is investigated, and without requiring a bounded collision frequency the existence of integrable solutions is established. Mass conservation, an H-theorem, and
## Communicated by H. Neunzert Stationary half-space solutions of the linearized Boltzmann equation are studied by energy estimates methods. We extend the results of Bardos, Caflisch and Nicolaenko for a gas of hard spheres to a general potential. Asymptotic behaviour is obtained for hard as well
