Motivation to investigate Green’s function for Boltzmann equation before 2003

• Nonlinear time-asymptotic stability of a Boltzmann shock profile

Zero total macroscopic perturbations

• Nonlinear time-asymptotic stability of a Knudsen layer for the Boltzmann EquationMach number <-1

Green’s function of linearized equation around a global Maxwellian,

• Fourier transformation

• The inverse transformation
