Invariant density and time asymptotics for collisionless kinetic equations with partly diffuse boundary operators

This paper deals with collisionless transport equationsin bounded open domains $\Omega \subset \R^{d}$ $(d\geq 2)$ with $\mathcal{C}^{1}$ boundary $\partial \Omega $, orthogonallyinvariant velocity measure $\bm{m}(\d v)$ with support $V\subset \R^{d}$ and stochastic partly diffuse boundary operators $\mathsf{H}$ relating the outgoing andincoming fluxes. Under very general conditions, such equations are governedby stochastic $C_{0}$-semigroups $\left( U_{\mathsf{H}}(t)\right) _{t\geq 0}$ on $%L^{1}(\Omega \times V,\d x \otimes \bm{m}(\d v)).$ We give a general criterion of irreducibility of $%\left( U_{\mathsf{H}}(t)\right) _{t\geq 0}$ and we show that, under very natural assumptions, if an …

Kinetics of growth process controlled by convective fluctuations

A model of the spherical (compact) growth process controlled by a fluctuating local convective velocity field of the fluid particles is introduced. It is assumed that the particle velocity fluctuations are purely noisy, Gaussian, of zero mean, and of various correlations: Dirac delta, exponential, and algebraic (power law). It is shown that for a large class of the velocity fluctuations, the long-time asymptotics of the growth kinetics is universal (i.e., it does not depend on the details of the statistics of fluctuations) and displays the power-law time dependence with the classical exponent $1/2$ resembling the diffusion limited growth. For very slow decay of algebraic correlations of flu…
