Resumo

In this review paper we describe the problem of deriving a Boltzmann equation for a system of N interacting quantum particles, under the appropriate scaling limits.We mainly follow the approach developed by the authors in previous works.From a rigorous viewpoint, only partial results are available, even for short times, so that the complete problem is still open.
