We are interested in the hydrodynamic limit of the Boltzmann equation for a gas of fermions in the incompressible Euler regime. We use the relative entropy method as improved by Saint-Raymond. Our result is analogous to what is obtained in the classical case, but the treatment is slightly complicated by the cubic nonlinearity of the collision operator.
We discuss the grazing collision limit of certain kinetic models of Bose-Einstein particles obtained from a suitable modification of the one- dimensional Kac caricature of a Maxwellian gas without cut-off. We recover in the limit a nonlinear Fokker-Planck equation which presents many similarities with the one introduced by Kaniadakis and Quarati in [13 ]. In order to do so, we perform a study of the moments of the solution. Moreover, as is typical in Maxwell models, we make an essential use of the Fourier version of the equation.
We prove an existence theorem for the Boltzmann-Fermi-Dirac equation for integrable collision kernels in possibly bounded domains with specular reflection at the boundaries, using the characteristic lines of the free transport. We then obtain that the solution satisfies the local conservations of mass, momentum and kinetic energy thanks to a dispersion technique.
We formally derive the hydrodynamic limit of a system modelling a bosons gas having a condensed part, made of a quantum kinetic and a Gross-Pitaevskii equation. The limit model, which is a two-fluids Euler system, is approximated by an isentropic system, which is then studied. We find in particular some conditions for the hyperbolicity, and we study the weak solutions. A numerical example is given at the end.
