Summary

This article is devoted to domain decomposition schemes for kinetic and hydrodynamic equations. A convergence proof for an alternating scheme is given and coupling conditions at the interface between the equations are developed and investigated. In particular for nonequilibrium situations at the interface new coupling conditions are developed by considering interface layers. This leads to kinetic linear half space problems. A fast procedure to solve these problems is given.
