Quantum BGK model near a global Fermi-Dirac distribution

Abstract

In this paper, we consider the existence and asymptotic behavior of the fermionic quantum BGK model, which is a relaxation model of the quantum Boltzmann equation for fermions. More precisely, we establish the existence of unique classical solutions and their exponentially fast stabilization when the initial data starts sufficiently close to a global Fermi-Dirac distribution. A key difficulty unobserved in the study of the classical BGK model is that we must verify that the equilibrium parameters is uniquely determined through a set of nonlinear equations in each iteration step.
