The non-cutoff Vlasov-Poisson-Boltzmann system with weak collisions

Abstract: We prove global existence of smooth solutions near Maxwellians for the non-cutoff Vlasov-Poisson-Boltzmann system in the weakly collisional regime. To address the weak dissipation of the non-cutoff linearized Boltzmann operator, we develop a refined velocity-weighted energy framework combined with vector-field techniques to control the transport term, nonlinear collisions, and the self-consistent electric field. This approach yields uniform-in-time bounds, captures enhanced dissipation of the solution, and establishes Landau damping for both the density and electric field, providing the first global-in-time result of this type for the non-cutoff Vlasov-Poisson-Boltzmann system. Our approach is inspired by the recent work of Chaturvedi-Luk-Nguyen ({\it J. Amer. Math. Soc.} {\bf 36} (2023), no. 4, 1103--1189.)
