Characteristic solutions of the chain of Vlasov equations

Abstract A new method has been presented of constructing a class of exact solutions of an infinite self-linking chain of the Vlasov equations for distribution functions of kinematic quantities of all orders. Using the characteristic transformation of variables proposed in this paper, any equation from the Vlasov chain can be reduced to the mathematical form of the first Vlasov equation. Since the solution of the first Vlasov equation can be found by the solution of the Schrödinger equation, the authors have proposed an algorithm for constructing characteristic solutions for an arbitrary equation from the Vlasov chain. The proposed method of construction of exact solutions has been successfully implemented on an example of time-dependent quantum system with thermodynamic parameter in the form of inverse temperature. These found exact solutions are also applicable to quantum dot systems.
