Incompressible Flows with Piecewise Constant Density

Abstract: We investigate the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations with variable density. The aim is to prove existence and uniqueness results in the case of discontinuous initial density. In dimension n = 2, 3, assuming only that the initial density is bounded and bounded away from zero, and that the initial velocity is smooth enough, we get the local-in-time existence of unique solutions. Uniqueness holds in any dimension and for a wider class of velocity fields. Let us emphasize that all those results are true for p… Show more

“…Here one can mention the critical regularity approach of [4,5] where density has to be continuous, bounded, and bounded away from 0, and relatively new works like [6,8] (further improved in [3,9,15,29]), relying on the use of Lagrangian coordinates, and where the density need not be continuous. Recently, in connection with Lions' question, much attention has been brought to the case where the initial density is given by…”

“…This result improves the former interesting well-posedness theorem of Danchin and Mucha in [14] by removing the smallness assumption on the fluctuation to the initial density and also with much less regularity for the initial velocity.…”
