Phase mixing and the Vlasov equation in cosmology

Vortrag von Dr. Renato Velozo Ruiz

In this talk, we will consider the Vlasov equation on expanding isotropic homogeneous tori described by the Friedmann–Lemaître–Robertson–Walker cosmological spacetimes. For expansion rate $t^q$, with $0 < q \leq 1/2$ (excluding some exceptional values), we show that the difference of a time-normalised spatial density with the spatial average decays with a quantitative rate depending on the regularity of the initial datum.
