Hydrodynamic limit and Newtonian limit from the relativistic Vlasov-Maxwell-Boltzmann system to the classical Euler-Poisson system

Abstract

In this paper, around a global smooth irrotational solution to the classical isentropic compressible Euler-Poisson system, we construct classical solutions to the one-species relativistic Vlasov-Maxwell-Boltzmann system on any finite time interval $[0,T]$, and rigorously justify the combined hydrodynamic and Newtonian limits to the Euler-Poisson system. In particular, this yields a rigorous derivation of the compressible Euler-Poisson system, whose Poisson coupling induces an instantaneous electrostatic response and thus no longer preserves a strict finite-speed propagation structure, from a relativistic kinetic model with finite propagation speed. The analysis is based on a Hilbert expansion in $\varepsilon$ for the relativistic Vlasov-Maxwell-Boltzmann system, an asymptotic expansion in $\mathfrak{c}^{-1}$
