HYDRODYNAMIC LIMIT OF THE BOLTZMANN-MONGE-AMPERE SYSTEM

Abstract

This paper investigates the hydrodynamic limit of the Boltzmann-Monge-Ampere system in the so-called quasineutral regime and more precisely the convergence of the Boltzmann-Monge-Ampere system to the Euler equation by using the relative entropy method.

Keywords

• Boltzman equation,Monge-Ampere equation,Euler equations of the incompressible uid.
