Holder estimates for kinetic Fokker-Planck equations up to the boundary

We obtain local Holder continuity estimates up to the boundary for a kinetic Fokker-Planck equation with rough coefficients, with the prescribed influx boundary condition. Our result extends some recent developments that incorporate De Giorgi methods to kinetic Fokker-Planck equations. We also obtain higher order asymptotic estimates near the incoming part of the boundary. In particular, when the equation has a zero boundary conditions and no source term, we prove that the solution vanishes at infinite order on the incoming part of the boundary.
