Abstract
Without Grad's angular cutoff assumption, the local existence of classical solutions to the Boltzmann equation is studied. There are two new improvements: the index of Sobolev spaces for the solution is related to the parameter of the angular singularity; moreover, we do not assume that the initial data is close to a global equilibrium. Using the energy method, one important step in the analysis is the study of fractional derivatives of the collision operator and related commutators © American Institute of Mathematical Sciences.
