After proving the wellposedness of the equation, we provide a precise description of the asymptotic behavior in large time. To do so we adopt a duality approach, which is well suited both as a first step to construct a measure solution by mean of semigroups and to obtain an explicit expression of the asymptotic measure. Even thought the equation is non linear, this measure depends linearly on the initial condition. This result is completed by a decay in total variation norm, which happens to be subgeometric due to the nonlinearity of the equation. This relies on an unusual use of a confining condition that is needed to apply a Harris-type theorem, taken from a recent paper [2] that also provides a way to compute explicitly the constants involved in the aforementioned decay in norm.","PeriodicalId":49942,"journal":{"name":"Kinetic and Related Models","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85245571","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This has been proved rigorously for certain families of Boltzmann operators concentrating on grazing collisions. In this contribution, we study the collision kernels associated to the two-particle scattering via a finite range potential $Phi(x)$ in three dimensions. We then consider the limit of weak interaction given by $Phi_epsilon(x) = epsilon Phi(x)$. Here $epsilonrightarrow 0$ is the grazing parameter, and the rate of collisions is rescaled to obtain a non-trivial limit. The grazing collisions limit is of particular interest for potentials with a singularity of order $sgeq 0$ at the origin, i.e. $phi(x) sim |x|^{-s}$ as $|x|rightarrow 0$. For $sin [0,1]$, we prove the convergence to the Landau equation with diffusion coefficient given by the Born approximation, as predicted in the works of Landau and Balescu. On the other hand, for potentials with $s>1$ we obtain the non-cutoff Boltzmann equation in the limit. The Coulomb singularity $s=1$ appears as a threshold value with a logarithmic correction to the diffusive timescale, the so-called Coulomb logarithm.","PeriodicalId":49942,"journal":{"name":"Kinetic and Related Models","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75721007","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Finally, we show that the same qualitative result holds also for a general class of follow-the-leader dynamics based on the headway of the vehicles rather than on their speed.
