Invariant Manifolds for the Steady Boltzmann Equation

Prof. Tai-Ping Liu, Stanford University, USA

The global flow picture for the steady Boltzmann equation is studied (jointly with Shih-Hsien Yu). The time-asymptotic analysis is based on explicit construction of the Green's function. For the resonance situation when one of the Euler characteristic speeds is near zero, there are coupling of Knudsen-type and fluid-like waves. The construction of Bifurcation and Sone Manifolds yields finite dimensional reduction of the center manifold. Fluid nonlinearity is recognized and applied to study the global flow picture.
