Global solutions to the compressible Navier-Stokes-Poisson equations in the half-space
Abstract
We study the initial boundary value problem for the compressible Navier-Stokes-Poisson equations without damping in the three-dimensional half-space. The velocity satisfies the no-slip boundary condition, and the electric potential satisfies the homogeneous Neumann boundary condition. For small perturbations of a constant state in $H^3$, with a small initial electric field in $L^2$, we establish global existence and uniqueness of strong solutions. The uniform estimates combine density dissipation, tangential and normal derivative estimates, and a modified energy that accounts for the electric boundary contribution through the Helmholtz projection. We also prove algebraic decay under an additional low-frequency assumption on the initial data. If the density perturbation, velocity and electric field have finite tangential negative Sobolev norms of order $-s$, where $1/2\leq s<1$, then the solution decays at the rate $(1+t)^{-s/2}$ in the full energy norm. The decay estimate follows from the formulation in terms of the momentum $ρu$, uniform negative-order estimates and interpolation with the dissipation.
