We present in this paper the formal passage from a kinetic model to the incompressible Navier−Stokes equations for a mixture of monoatomic gases with different masses. The starting point of this derivation is the collection of coupled Boltzmann equations for the mixture of gases. The diffusion coefficients for the concentrations of the species, as well as the ones appearing in the equations for velocity and temperature, are explicitly computed under the Maxwell molecule assumption in terms of the...

MSC 2010: 26A33, 35R11, 35R60, 35Q84, 60H10 Dedicated to 80-th anniversary of Professor Rudolf GorenfloThere is a well-known relationship between the Itô stochastic differential equations (SDEs) and the associated partial differential equations called Fokker-Planck equations, also called Kolmogorov equations. The Brownian motion plays the role of the basic driving process for SDEs. This paper provides fractional generalizations of the triple relationship between the driving process, corresponding...

A linear Boltzmann equation is interpreted as the forward equation for the probability density of a Markov process $\left(K\right(t),i(t),Y(t\left)\right)$ on $({𝕋}^2\times \{1,2\}\times {ℝ}^2)$, where ${𝕋}^2$ is the two-dimensional torus. Here $\left(K\right(t),i(t\left)\right)$ is an autonomous reversible jump process, with waiting times between two jumps with finite expectation value but infinite variance. $Y\left(t\right)$ is an additive functional of $K$, defined as ${\int }_0^{t}v\left(K\left(s\right)\right)\mathrm{d}s$, where $\left|v\right|\sim 1$ for small $k$. We prove that the rescaled process ${(NlnN)}^{-1/2}Y\left(Nt\right)$ converges in distribution to a two-dimensional Brownian motion. As a consequence, the appropriately...

We describe a new model of massless thermal bosons which predicts an hyperbolic fluctuation spectrum at low frequencies. It is found that the partition function per mode is the Euler generating function for unrestricted partitions $p(n$). Thermodynamical quantities carry a strong arithmetical structure : they are given by series with Fourier coefficients equal to summatory functions ${\sigma }_k\left(n\right)$ of the power of divisors, with $k=-1$ for the free energy, $k=0$ for the number of particles and $k=1$ for the internal energy. Low...

In a statistical mechanics model with unbounded spins, we prove uniqueness of the Gibbs measure under various assumptions on finite volume functional inequalities. We follow Royer's approach (Royer, 1999) and obtain uniqueness by showing convergence properties of a Glauber-Langevin dynamics. The result was known when the measures on the box [-n,n]d (with free boundary conditions) satisfied the same logarithmic Sobolev inequality. We generalize this in two directions: either the constants may be...
