“…In this case, the coercive effects are much weaker and of the form −Q(g, f ) ≈ (log(1 − ∆)) µ+1 f + lower order terms, (7) as was noticed in [11], see also appendix A. In this work, as in [4,11], we consider only the socalled Maxwellian molecules approximation, where the collision kernel does not depend on v − v * , but only on the collision angle θ.…”
