Preface
This volume of RIMS Kôkyûroku Bessatsu is the proceedings of the RIMS workshop
“Workshop on the Boltzmann Equation, Microlocal Analysis
and Related Topics”
held at Kyoto University Clock Tower Centennial Hall from May 27 though May 29, 2016. The volume contains research papers and survey articles by invited speakers of the above conference. All papers in this volume have been reviewed and are in their final forms.
The conference was planned to celebrate the sixty-fifth birthday of
Professor Yoshinori Morimoto. Professor Morimoto has made great contributions to the development of the Boltzmann equation, especially smoothing effect of solutions to the Boltzmann equation without angular cutoff. Precise contributions done by Professor Morimoto are stated in the article of this volume contributed by Professor Chao-Jiang Xu.
We would express our gratitude to the speakers, participants and the staff of RIMS, who made the workshop successful. We would also express our thanks to the authors and the referees of the articles of this volume. The conference was supported by RIMS and JSPS KAKENHI Grant numbers 25400160 and 16H03945.
