After successful completion of the course, students are able to understand and explain applications, derivations, reseults of the mathematical analysis, and some numerical schemes of kinetic equations.
1. Applications, derivation of kinetic equations from particle systems
2. Mathematical analysis of Cauchy and boundary value problems
3. Quantum-kinetic equations, semi-classical limit
4. Hydrodynamic limits
5. Numerical methods
