Abstract
A rigorous derivation of the incompressible Euler equations with the no-penetration boundary condition from the Boltzmann equation with the diffuse reflection boundary condition has been a challenging open problem. We settle this open question in the affirmative when the initial data of fluid are well-prepared in a real analytic space, in 3D half space. As a key of this advance we capture the Navier-Stokes equations satisfying the no-slip boundary condition, as an intermediary approximation of the Euler equations through a new Hilbert-type expansion of the Boltzmann equation with the diffuse reflection boundary condition. Aiming to justify the approximation we establish a novel quantitative $L^p-L^\infty$ estimate of the Boltzmann perturbation around a local Maxwellian of such viscous approximation, along with the commutator estimates and the integrability gain of the hydrodynamic part in various spaces; we also establish direct estimates of the Navier-Stokes equations in higher regularity with the aid of the initial- boundary and boundary layer weights using a recent Green’s function approach. The incompressible Euler limit follows as a byproduct of our framework.
