MiS Preprint Repository
We have decided to discontinue the publication of preprints on our preprint server end of 2024. The publication culture within mathematics has changed so much due to the rise of repositories such as ArXiV (www.arxiv.org) that we are encouraging all institute members to make their preprints available there. An institute's repository in its previous form is, therefore, unnecessary. The preprints published to date will remain available here, but we will not add any new preprints here.
Singular solutions for the Uehling-Uhlenbeck equation
Miguel Escobedo, Stephane Mischler and Juan J.L. VelazquezAbstract
In this paper we prove the existence of solutions of the Uehling-Uhlenbeck equation that behave like k^(-7/6) as k tends to zero. From the physical point of view, such solutions can be thought as particle distributions in the space of momentum having a sink (or a source) of particles with zero momentum. Our construction is based on the precise estimates of the semigroup for the linearized equation around the singular function k^(-7/6) that we obtained in [5].
