Stability, convergence to self-similarity and elastic limit for the Boltzmann equation for inelastic hard spheres

Stéphane Mischler, Clément Mouhot

We consider the spatially homogeneous Boltzmann equation for {\em inelastic hard spheres}, in the framework of so-called {\em constant normal restitution coefficients} $\alpha \in [0,1]$…
