Global well-posedness of the quantum Boltzmann equation for bosons interacting via inverse power law potentials

Abstract

We consider the spatially inhomogeneous quantum Boltzmann equation for bosons with a singular collision kernel, the weak-coupling limit of a large system of Bose-Einstein particles interacting through inverse power law. Global well-posedness of the corresponding Cauchy problem is proved in a periodic box near equilibrium for initial data satisfying high temperature condition.
