Abstract

This paper is concerned with the Boltzmann equation with specular reflection boundary condition. We construct a unique global solution and obtain its large time asymptotic behavior in the case that the initial data is close enough to a radially symmetric homogeneous datum. The result extends the case of Cauchy problem considered by Arkeryd–Esposito–Pulvirenti [4] to the specular reflection boundary value problem in bounded domain.
