Lower Bound and Space-time Decay Rates of Higher Order Derivatives of Solution for the Compressible Navier-Stokes and Hall-MHD Equations

In this paper, we address the lower bound and space-time decay rates for the compressible Navier-Stokes and Hall-MHD equations under $H^3-$framework in $\mathbb{R}^3$. First of all, the lower bound of decay rate for the density, velocity and magnetic field converging to the equilibrium status in $L^2$ is $(1+t)^{-\frac{3}{4}}$; the lower bound of decay rate for the first order spatial derivative of density and velocity converging to zero in $L^2$ is $(1+t)^{-\frac{5}{4}}$, and the $k(\in [1, 3])-$th order spatial derivative of magnetic field converging to zero in $L^2$ is $(1+t)^{-\frac{3+2k}{4}}$. Secondly, the lower bound of decay rate for time derivatives of density and velocity converging to zero in $L^2$ is $(1+t)^{-\frac{5}{4}}$; however, the lower bound of decay rate for time derivatives of magnetic field converging to zero in $L^2$ is $(1+t)^{-\frac{7}{4}}$. Finally, we address the decay rate of solution in weighted Sobolev space $H^3_γ$. More precisely, the upper bound of decay rate of the $k(\in [0, 2])$-th order spatial derivatives of density and velocity converging to the $k(\in [0, 2])$-th order derivatives of constant equilibrium in weighted space $L^2_γ$ is $t^{-\frac{3}{4}+γ-\frac{k}{2}}$; however, the upper bounds of decay rate of the $k(\in [0, 3])$-th order spatial derivatives of magnetic field converging to zero in weighted space $L^2_γ$ is $t^{-\frac{3}{4}+\frac{γ}{2}-\frac{k}{2}}$.

Large time behavior in critical $L^p$ Besov spaces for compressible viscoelastic flows

We consider the large time behavior of global strong solutions to the compressible viscoelastic flows on the whole space $\mathbb{R}^N\,(N\geq 2)$, where the system describes the elastic properties of the compressible fluid. Adding a suitable initial condition involving only the low-frequency, we prove optimal time decay estimates for the global solutions in the $L^p$ critical regularity framework, which are similar to those of the compressible Navier-Stokes equations. Our results rely on the pure energy argument, which allows us to remove the usual smallness assumption of the data in the low-frequency.

Optimal decay for the compressible MHD equations in the critical regularity framework

In this paper, we study the large time behavior of solutions to the compressible magnetohydrodynamic equations in the $L^p$-type critical Besov spaces. Precisely, we show that if the initial data in the low frequencies additionally belong to some Besov space $\dot{B}_{2,\infty}^{-σ_1}$ with $σ_1\in (1-N/2, 2N/p-N/2]$, then the $\dot{B}_{p,1}^0$ norm of the critical global solutions presents the optimal decay $t^{-\frac{N}{2}(\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{p})-\frac{σ_1}{2}}$ for $t\rightarrow+\infty$. The pure energy argument without the spectral analysis is performed, which allows us to remove the usual smallness assumption of low frequencies.

Blow up and global existence for the periodic Phan-Thein-Tanner model

In this paper, we mainly investigate the Cauchy problem for the periodic Phan-Thein-Tanner (PTT) model. This model is derived from network theory for the polymeric fluid. We prove that the strong solutions of PTT model will blow up in finite time if the trace of initial stress tensor $\tr τ_0(x)$ is negative. This is a very different with the other viscoelastic model. On the other hand, we obtain the global existence result with small initial data when $\tr τ_0(x)\geq c_0>0$ for some $c_0$. Moreover, we study about the large time behavior.

Boundary Layer Problems for the Two-dimensional Inhomogeneous Incompressible Magnetohydrodynamics Equations

In this paper, we study the well-posedness of boundary layer problems for the inhomogeneous incompressible magnetohydrodynamics(MHD) equations, which are derived from the two dimensional density-dependent incompressible MHD equations.Under the assumption that initial tangential magnetic field is not zero and density is a small perturbation of the outer constant flow in supernorm,the local-in-time existence and uniqueness of inhomogeneous incompressible MHD boundary layer equation are established in weighted Conormal Sobolev spaces by energy method. As a byproduct, the local-in-time well-posedness of homogeneous incompressible MHD boundary layer equations with any large initial data can be obtained.

A Note on the Well-posedness of Prandtl Equations in Dimension Two

In this paper, we investigate the local-in-time well-posedness for the two-dimensional Prandtl equations in weighted Sobolev spaces under the Oleinik's monotonicity condition.Due to the loss of tangential derivative caused by vertical velocity appearing in convective term, we add with artificial horizontal viscosity term to construct an approximate system that can obtain local-in-time well-posedness results easily. For this approximate system, we construct a new weighted norm for the vorticity to derive a positive life time(independent of artificial viscosity coefficient) and obtain uniform bound for vorticity in this weighted norm.Then, based on compactness argument, we prove the solution of approximate system converging to the solution of original Prandtl equations, and hence, obtain the local-in-time well-posedness result for the Prandtl equations with any large initial data, which improves the recent work [10].

Vanishing Shear Viscosity Limit and Boundary Layer Study on the Planar MHD system

We consider an initial boundary problem for the planar MHD system under the general condition on the heat conductivity $κ$ that may depend on both the density $ρ$ and the temperature $θ$ satisfying $κ(ρ,θ)\geqκ_1 θ^{q}$ for some constants $κ_1>0$ and $q>0.$ Firstly, the global existence of strong solution for large initial data is obtained, and then the limit of the vanishing shear viscosity is justified. In addition, the $L^2$ convergence rate is obtained together with the estimation on the thickness of the boundary layer.

Global existence and incompressible limit in critical spaces for compressible flow of liquid crystals

The Cauchy problem for the compressible flow of nematic liquid crystals in the framework of critical spaces is considered. We first establish the existence and uniqueness of global solutions provided that the initial data are close to some equilibrium states. This result improves the work by Hu and Wu [SIAM J. Math. Anal., 45 (2013), pp. 2678-2699] through relaxing the regularity requirement of the initial data in terms of the director field. We then consider the incompressible limit problem for ill prepared initial data. We prove that as the Mach number tends to zero, the global solution to the compressible flow of liquid crystals converges to the solution to the corresponding incompressible model in some function spaces. Moreover, the accurate converge rates are obtained.

Optimal Decay Rates of Classical Solutions for the Full Compressible MHD Equations

In this paper, we are concerned with optimal decay rates for higher order spatial derivatives of classical solutions to the full compressible MHD equations in three dimensional whole space. If the initial perturbation are small in $H^3$-norm and bounded in $L^q(q\in \left[1, \frac{6}{5}\right))$-norm, we apply the Fourier splitting method by Schonbek[Arch. Rational Mech. Anal. 88 (1985)] to establish optimal decay rates for the second order spatial derivatives of solutions and the third order spatial derivatives of magnetic field in $L^2$-norm. These results improve the work of Pu and Guo [Z. Angew. Math. Phys. 64 (2013) 519-538].

Global Existence and Optimal Decay Rates of Solutions for Compressible Hall-MHD Equations

In this paper, we are concerned with global existence and optimal decay rates of solutions for the three-dimensional compressible Hall-MHD equations. First, we prove the global existence of strong solutions by the standard energy method under the condition that the initial data are close to the constant equilibrium state in $H^2$-framework. Second, optimal decay rates of strong solutions in $L^2$-norm are obtained if the initial data belong to $L^1$ additionally. Finally, we apply Fourier splitting method by Schonbek [Arch.Rational Mech. Anal. 88 (1985)] to establish optimal decay rates for higher order spatial derivatives of classical solutions in $H^3$-framework, which improves the work of Fan et al.[Nonlinear Anal. Real World Appl. 22 (2015)].

Strong Solution to the Density-dependent Incompressible Nematic Liquid Crystal Flows

In this paper, we investigate the density-dependent incompressible nematic liquid crystal flows in $n(n=2$ or $3)$ dimensional bounded domain. More precisely, we obtain the local existence and uniqueness of the solutions when the viscosity coefficient of fluid depends on density. Moreover, we establish blowup criterions for the regularity of the strong solutions in dimension two and three respectively. In particular, we build a blowup criterion just in terms of the gradient of density if the initial direction field satisfies some geometric configuration. For these results, the initial density needs not be strictly positive.

First of all, we establish the global existence of solution by energy method under assumption of small initial data. Furthermore, the time decay rates of velocity and director are built when the initial data belongs to $L^1(\mathbb{R}^3)$ additionally. Finally, one also constructs the time convergence rates for the mixed space-time derivatives of velocity and director.

Global Solvability and Vanishing Shear Viscosity Limit of Planar Magnetohydrodynamic Equations with Large Initial Data

By observing a new relation between the magnetic pressure and the hydrodynamic pressure, global existence of classical solution to the full perfect MHD equations with large data is established, in particular including the case when all the viscosity, heat conductivity and diffusivity coefficients are constant. This can be viewed as an analog of the classical work by Kazhikhov-Shelukhin for the Navier-Stokes equations to the MHD equations. In addition, the vanishing shear viscosity limit is proved.
