abstract = {We study the homogenization limit of the renewal equation with heterogeneous external con- straints by means of the two-scale convergence theory. We prove that the homogenized limit satisfies an equation involving non-local terms, which are the consequence of the oscillations in the birth and death terms. We have moreover shown that the numerical approximation of the homogenized equation via the two-scale limit gives an alternative way for the numerical study of the solution of the limiting problem.},

abstract = {In this paper, we investigate a compactness property of the linearized Boltzmann operator in the context of a polyatomic gas whose molecules undergo resonant collisions. The peculiar structure of resonant collision rules allows to tensorize the problem into a velocity-related one, neighbouring the monatomic case, and an internal energy-related one. Our analysis is based on a specific treatment of the internal energy contributions. We also propose a geometric variant of Grad's proof of the same compactness property in the monatomic case.},

abstract = {We consider finite and infinite-dimensional first-order consensus systems with time- constant interaction coefficients. For symmetric coefficients, convergence to consensus is classically established by proving, for instance, that the usual variance is an exponentially decreasing Lyapunov function. We investigate here the convergence to consensus in the non-symmetric case: we identify a positive weight which allows us to define a weighted mean corresponding to the consensus and obtain exponential convergence towards consensus. Moreover, we compute the sharp exponential decay rate.},

abstract = {This paper studies a model for describing opinions' evolution in a community linked by microblogging directed network systems. The network can evolve in time by means of the creation and the deletion of some connections. When a connexion is created, the individuals have access to the whole history of posts written by the corresponding author and, when a connexion is destroyed, all the posts written by the corresponding author become invisible. The agents' opinions are described by a set of continuous opinion variables in the closed interval  Omega=[-1,1]. They represent the agreement (or disagreement) of the corresponding agent with respect to a binary question (such as a referendum or an election with two candidates). The model takes into account the effects on public opinion caused by the sign and the intensity of the initial opinions of the agents, their activity in microblogging platforms the presence of leaders and the possible manipulations of the visibility of the posts by the microblogging platform owner. The model is written as a system of integro-differential equations and simulated by using a Runge-Kutta method. We show that hidden manipulation can have an important impact on the public opinion formation and that very mild interventions of the network owner may induce major effects on the population. In our simulations, the effect of hidden manipulation is shown to be more efficient in driving the public opinion than the action of a leader, in the case of bounded confidence models and for short-time intervals.},

We notice that the domain of definition of the problem plays a crucial role and heavily influences the behavior of the solution. The rigorous proof of the relaxation limit does not need the use of entropy estimates for ensuring compactness.},

After introducing the model, we prove the existence and the uniqueness of the solution and provide a numerical strategy for the study of the equations. At the numerical level, we focus our attention on the phenomenon of energy transfer between the gas and the moving dust particles.},

abstract = {In this article we deduce a mathematical model of Maxwell-Stefan type for a reactive mixture of polyatomic gases with a continuous structure of internal energy. The equations of the model are derived in the diffusive limit of a kinetic system of Boltzmann equations for the considered mixture, in the general non-isothermal setting. The asymptotic analysis of the kinetic system is performed under a reactive-diffusive scaling for which mechanical collisions are dominant with respect to chemical reactions. The resulting system couples the Maxwell-Stefan equations for the diffusive fluxes with the evolution equations for the number densities of the chemical species and the evolution equation for the temperature of the mixture. The production terms due to the chemical reaction and the Maxwell-Stefan diffusion coefficients are moreover obtained in terms of general collision kernels and parameters of the kinetic model.},
