Boltzmann to Landau from the gradient flow perspective

We revisit the grazing collision limit connecting the Boltzmann equation to the Landau(-Fokker-Planck) equation from their recent reinterpretations as gradient flows. Our results are in the same spirit as the $\Gamma$-convergence of gradient flows technique introduced by Sandier and Serfaty. In this...
