For solutions with small initial data in three dimensions it is known that the spatial density of particles decays like $t^{-3}$ at late times. In this paper this statement is refined to show that each derivative of the density which is taken leads to an extra power of decay so that in $N$ dimensions for $N\\ge 3$ the derivative of the density of order $k$ decays like $t^{-N-k}$. An asymptotic formula for the solution at late times is also obtained.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2006-06-16T12:21:22.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "35B40" ], "keywords": [ "small initial data", "optimal gradient estimates", "vlasov-poisson system", "asymptotic behaviour", "late times" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 37, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2006math......6389H" } } }
