| contents | We study the Boltzmann equation in a smooth bounded domain featuring a mixed boundary condition. Specifically, gas particles experience specular reflection in two parallel plates, while diffusive reflection occurs in the remaining portion between these two specular regions. The boundary is assumed to be motionless and isothermal. Our main focus is on constructing global-in-time small-amplitude solutions around global Maxwellians for the corresponding initial-boundary value problem. The proof relies on the $L^2$ hypocoercivity at the linear level, utilizing the weak formulation and various functional inequalities on the test functions, such as Poincaré and Korn inequalities. It also extends to the linear problem involving Maxwell boundary conditions, where the accommodation coefficient can be a piecewise constant function on the boundary, allowing for more general bounded domains. Moreover, we develop a delicate application of the $L^2-L^\infty$ bootstrap argument, which relies on the specific geometry of our domains, to effectively handle this mixed-type boundary condition. |
