The series is devoted to the publication of high-level monographs and specialized graduate texts which cover the whole spectrum of applied mathematics, including its numerical aspects. The focus of the series is on the interplay between mathematical and numerical analysis, and also on its applications to mathematical models in the physical and life sciences.
This two-volume monograph is a comprehensive and up-to-date presentation of the theory and applications of kinetic equations. The first volume covers many-particle dynamics, Maxwell models of the Boltzmann equation (including their exact and self-similar solutions), and hydrodynamic limits beyond the Navier-Stokes level.
