Abstract

In this paper we first deduce the estimates on the linearized Landau operator with Coulomb potential and then analyze its spectrum structure by using semigroup theory and linear operator perturbation theory Based on these estimates, we give the precise time decay rate estimates on the semigroup generated by the linearized Landau operator so that the optimal time decay rates of the nonlinear Landau equation follow. In addition, we present a similar result for the non-angular cutoff Boltzmann equation with soft potentials.
