Global existence and uniqueness for the planar four-velocity Broadwell model with arbitrary $C^{1}$ bounded initial and boundary data in a rectangular domain

Abstract

This paper establishes the global existence of classical solutions to the initial-boundary value problem for the planar four-velocity Broadwell model in a multidimensional setting. While uniqueness was already established in our previous work (which addressed existence under the assumption of sufficiently small, bounded, and $C^{1}$-regular initial and boundary data), the objective of the present study is to completely lift this size restriction. By extending the previously developed fixed-point framework, we prove that the methodology remains highly effective for arbitrary initial and boundary data. Within this generalized setting, both the solutions and their first-order partial derivatives are shown to be well-defined and to exist globally for all times.
