A new approach to transport equations associated to a regular field: trace results and well-posedness

Abstract

We generalize known results on transport equations associated to a Lipschitz field $\mathbf{F}$ on some subspace of ${\mathbb{R}}^N$ endowed with some general space measure $\mu$. We provide a new definition of both the transport operator and the trace measures over the incoming and outgoing parts of $\partial \Omega$ generalizing known results from the literature. We also prove the well-posedness of some suitable boundary-value transport problems and describe in full generality the generator of the transport semigroup with no-incoming boundary conditions.
