Sensitivity analysis and incompressible Navier-Stokes-Poisson limit of Vlasov-Poisson-Boltzmann equations with uncertainty

For the Vlasov-Poisson-Boltzmann equations with random uncertainties from the initial data or collision kernels, we proved the sensitivity analysis and energy estimates uniformly with respect to the Knudsen number in the diffusive scaling using hypocoercivity method. As a consequence, we also justified the incompressible Navier-Stokes-Poisson limit with random inputs. In particular, for the first time, we obtain the precise convergence rate {\em without} employing any results based on Hilbert expansion. We not only generalized the previous deterministic Navier-Stokes-Poisson limits to random initial data case, also improve the previous uncertainty quantification results to the case where the initial data include both kinetic and fluid parts.
