Global well-posedness for a two-dimensional Keller-Segel-Euler system of consumption type
Abstract
We consider the Cauchy problem for the Keller-Segel system of consumption type coupled with the incompressible Euler equations in $\mathbb{R}^2$. This coupled system describes a biological phenomenon in which aerobic bacteria living in slightly viscous fluids (such as water) move towards a higher oxygen concentration to survive. We firstly prove the local existence of smooth solutions for arbitrary smooth initial data. Then we show that these smooth solutions can be extended globally if the initial density of oxygen is sufficiently small. The main ingredient in the proof is the $W^{1,q}$-energy estimate $(q>2)$ motivated by the partially inviscid two-dimensional Boussinesq system in \cite{C06}. Our result improves the well-known global well-posedness of the two-dimensional Keller-Segel system of consumption type coupled with the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations.
