Abstract

The work is devoted to the mathematical problems of the analysis of asymptotic time behavior of solutions of the nonstationary Boltzmann equation. The proof of the fundamental difference between such behavior for the cases of “hard” and “soft” (in the sense of H. Grad) potentials of intermolecular interaction is given
