A Prior Derivation and Local Existence of Classical Solutions for the Relativistic Euler Equations with Logarithmic Equation of State

In this paper, from an investigation of a symmetric hyperbolic system, a prior derivation of the logarithm equation of state is provided. Through a diffeomorphism transforming the classical Euler equations to the symmetric hyperbolic system, we show that the logarithm pressure co-exists with existing barotropic equations of state without applying any physical laws. In this connection, we also establish a local existence of classical solutions for the relativistic Euler equations with the logarithm equation of state.

Global Existence of Solutions to the Compressible Euler Equations with Time-dependent Damping and Logarithmic State Equation

In mathematical physics, the pressure function is determined by the equation of state. There are two existing barotropic state equations: the state equation for polytropic gas with adiabatic index greater than or equal to 1 and the state equation for generalized Chaplygin gas in cosmology. In this paper, a logarithmic pressure is derived naturally with the coexistence of the two existing state equations through an equivalent symmetric hyperbolic transformation. On the study of the logarithmic pressure, global existence of solutions with small initial data to the one-dimensional compressible Euler equations with time-dependent damping is established.
