Hypocoercivity for kinetic equations with linear relaxation terms

Abstract: This Note is devoted to a simple method for proving the hypocoercivity associated to a kinetic equation involving a linear time relaxation operator. It is based on the construction of an adapted Lyapunov functional satisfying a Gronwall-type inequality. The method clearly distinguishes the coercivity at microscopic level, which directly arises from the properties of the relaxation operator, and a spectral gap inequality at the macroscopic level for the spatial density, which is connected to the diffusion limit… Show more

“…Recently, some general theory on hypocoercivity was provided in [23,5,28]. By constructing some proper Lyapunov functional defined over the Hilbert space, Mouhot-Neumann [23] obtained the exponential rates of convergence in H 1 -norm for some kinetic models with general structures in the case of torus.…”

“…By constructing some proper Lyapunov functional defined over the Hilbert space, Mouhot-Neumann [23] obtained the exponential rates of convergence in H 1 -norm for some kinetic models with general structures in the case of torus. An extension of [23] to models in the presence of a confining potential force was given by Dolbeault-Mouhot-Schmeiser [5], where L 2 -norm was considered. Villani [28] also gave a systematic study of the Hypocoercivity theory.…”

“…This allows indeed a local control of the dissipative properties of the equation, and hence the solution is locally "attracted" everywhere toward its local equilibrium (see, for instance, [11,7,5,16]). …”
