We consider the Keller-Segel-Navier-Stokes system $$\left\{\begin{array}{cc}{n}_t+𝐮·\nabla n=\Delta n-\nabla ·\left(n\nabla v\right),\hfill & x\in \Omega ,t>0,\hfill \\ v_t+𝐮·\nabla v=\Delta v-v+w,\hfill & x\in \Omega ,t>0,\hfill \\ w_t+𝐮·\nabla w=\Delta w-w+n,\hfill & x\in \Omega ,t>0,\hfill \\ {𝐮}_t+(𝐮·\nabla )𝐮=\Delta 𝐮+\nabla P+n\nabla \phi ,\nabla ·𝐮=0,\hfill & x\in \Omega ,t>0,\hfill \end{array}\right.$$ which is considered in bounded domain $\Omega \subset {ℝ}^N$ $(N\in \{2,3\left\}\right)$ with smooth boundary, where $\phi \in C^{1+\delta }\left(\overline{\Omega }\right)$ with $\delta \in (0,1)$. We show that if the initial data $\parallel n_0{\parallel }_{L^{N/2}\left(\Omega \right)}$, $\parallel \nabla v_0{\parallel }_{L^N\left(\Omega \right)}$, $\parallel \nabla w_0{\parallel }_{L^N\left(\Omega \right)}$ and $\parallel {𝐮}_0{\parallel }_{L^N\left(\Omega \right)}$ is small enough, an associated initial-boundary value problem possesses a global classical solution which decays to the constant state $({\overline{n}}_0,{\overline{n}}_0,{\overline{n}}_0,0)$ exponentially with ${\overline{n}}_0:=(1/|\Omega \left|\right){\int }_{\Omega }{n}_0\left(x\right)\mathrm{d}x$.

This paper proves a Serrin’s type blow-up criterion for the 3D density-dependent Navier-Stokes-Korteweg equations with vacuum. It is shown that if the density $\rho$ and velocity field $u$ satisfy ${\parallel \nabla \rho \parallel }_{L^{\infty }(0,T;W^{1,q})}+{\parallel u\parallel }_{L^s(0,T;L_{\omega }^r)}<\infty$ for some $q>3$ and any $(r,s)$ satisfying $2/s+3/r\le 1$, $3<r\le \infty ,$ then the strong solutions to the density-dependent Navier-Stokes-Korteweg equations can exist globally over $[0,T]$. Here $L_{\omega }^r$ denotes the weak $L^r$ space.

We deal with the steady Stokes problem, associated with a flow of a viscous incompressible fluid through a spatially periodic profile cascade. Using the reduction to domain $\Omega$, which represents one spatial period, the problem is formulated by means of boundary conditions of three types: the conditions of periodicity on curves ${\Gamma }_{-}$ and ${\Gamma }_{+}$ (lower and upper parts of $\partial \Omega$), the Dirichlet boundary conditions on ${\Gamma }_{\mathrm{in}}$ (the inflow) and ${\Gamma }_0$ (boundary of the profile) and an artificial “do nothing”-type boundary...

We consider sequences of solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations in ${ℝ}^3$, associated with sequences of initial data bounded in ${\dot{H}}^{1/2}$. We prove, in the spirit of the work of H.Bahouri and P.Gérard (in the case of the wave equation), that they can be decomposed into a sum of orthogonal profiles, bounded in ${\dot{H}}^{1/2}$, up to a remainder term small in $L^3$; the method is based on the proof of a similar result for the heat equation, followed by a perturbation–type argument. If $𝒜$ is an “admissible” space (in...

We study higher local integrability of a weak solution to the steady Stokes problem. We consider the case of a pressure- and shear-rate-dependent viscosity, i.e., the elliptic part of the Stokes problem is assumed to be nonlinear and it depends on $p$ and on the symmetric part of a gradient of $u$, namely, it is represented by a stress tensor $T(Du,p):=\nu (p,|D{|}^2)D$ which satisfies $r$-growth condition with $r\in (1,2]$. In order to get the main result, we use Calderón-Zygmund theory and the method which was presented for...

In this paper we deal with the stationary Navier-Stokes problem in a domain $\Omega$ with compact Lipschitz boundary $\partial \Omega$ and datum $a$ in Lebesgue spaces. We prove existence of a solution for arbitrary values of the fluxes through the connected components of $\partial \Omega$, with possible countable exceptional set, provided $a$ is the sum of the gradient of a harmonic function and a sufficiently small field, with zero total flux for $\Omega$ bounded.

We establish the local-in-time existence of a solution to the non-resistive magneto-micropolar fluids with the initial data $u_0\in H^{s-1+\epsilon }$, $w_0\in H^{s-1}$ and $b_0\in H^s$ for $s>\frac{3}{2}$ and any $0<\epsilon <1$. The initial regularity of the micro-rotational velocity $w$ is weaker than velocity of the fluid $u$.

We study the Cauchy problem for the non-Newtonian incompressible fluid with the viscous part of the stress tensor ${\tau }^V\left(𝕖\right)=\tau \left(𝕖\right)-2{\mu }_1\Delta 𝕖$, where the nonlinear function $\tau \left(𝕖\right)$ satisfies ${\tau }_{ij}\left(𝕖\right)e_{ij}\ge c{\left|𝕖\right|}^p$ or ${\tau }_{ij}\left(𝕖\right)e_{ij}\ge {c\left(\right|𝕖|}^2+{\left|𝕖\right|}^p)$. First, the model for the bipolar fluid is studied and existence, uniqueness and regularity of the weak solution is proved for $p>1$ for both models. Then, under vanishing higher viscosity ${\mu }_1$, the Cauchy problem for the monopolar fluid is considered. For the first model the existence of the weak solution is proved for $p>\frac{3n}{n+2}$, its uniqueness...

We prove the existence of solutions to the evolutionary Stokes system in a bounded domain Ω ⊂ ℝ³. The main result shows that the velocity belongs either to $W_p^{2s+2,s+1}\left({\Omega }^T\right)$ or to $B_{p,q}^{2s+2,s+1}\left({\Omega }^T\right)$ with p > 3 and s ∈ ℝ₊ ∪ 0. The proof is divided into two steps. First the existence in $W_p^{2k+2,k+1}$ for k ∈ ℕ is proved. Next applying interpolation theory the existence in Besov spaces in a half space is shown. Finally the technique of regularizers implies the existence in a bounded domain. The result is generalized to the spaces...

We consider the 2D magnetic Prandtl equation in the Prandtl-Hartmann regime in a periodic domain and prove the local existence and uniqueness of solutions by energy methods in a polynomial weighted Sobolev space. On the one hand, we have noted that the $x$-derivative of the pressure $P$ plays a key role in all known results on the existence and uniqueness of solutions to the Prandtl-Hartmann regime equations, in which the case of favorable $P$ $({\partial }_{x}P<0)$ or the case of ${\partial }_{x}P=0$ (led by constant...
