โฆ Synopsis
The spectrum of a one-velocity transport operator with Maxwell boundary condition is discussed in L 1 space. First, it is proved that the spectrum of a streaming operator associated with the transport operator consists of infinitely isolated eigenvalues, each of which is simple; furthermore, a formula for computation of these eigenvalues is obtained. Second, it is proved that the essential spectrum of the transport operator is empty and it is pointed out that the dominant eigenvalue of the transport operator exists. Finally, a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of a complex eigenvalue of the transport operator in a right half plane is given.

We discuss the spectral properties of collisional semigroups associated to various models from transport theory by exploiting the links between the so-called resolvent approach and the semigroup approach. Precisely, we show that the essential spectrum of the full transport semigroup coincides with t
