β¦ Synopsis
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 moment estimates also are obtained, assuming weak conditions. Finally, the uniqueness of the solution is demonstrated under a suitable hypothesis on the collision frequency.

## 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
This note deals with linear second-order homogeneous ordinary differential equations associated with linear homogeneous boundary conditions. We find those solutions of the differential equation that satisfy a given boundary condition. Also, we determine the set of all those boundary conditions that
