Regularity estimates via the entropy dissipation for the spatially homogeneous Boltzmann equation without cut-off.

Cédric Villani (1999)

Revista Matemática Iberoamericana

We show that in the setting of the spatially homogeneous Boltzmann equation without cut-off, the entropy dissipation associated to a function f ∈ L1(RN) yields a control of √f in Sobolev norms as soon as f is locally bounded below. Under this additional assumption of lower bound, our result is an improvement of a recent estimate given by P.-L. Lions, and is optimal in a certain sense.

Regularity in kinetic formulations via averaging lemmas

Pierre-Emmanuel Jabin, Benoît Perthame (2002)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We present a new class of averaging lemmas directly motivated by the question of regularity for different nonlinear equations or variational problems which admit a kinetic formulation. In particular they improve the known regularity for systems like $γ = 3$ in isentropic gas dynamics or in some variational problems arising in thin micromagnetic films. They also allow to obtain directly the best known regularizing effect in multidimensional scalar conservation laws. The new ingredient here is to use velocity...
