Abstract

We study global existence and uniqueness of solutions to instationary inhomogeneous Navier-Stokes equations on bounded domains of Rn,n3\R^n, n\geq 3, with initial velocity in Bq,0(\Om)B^0_{q,\infty}(\Om), qnq\geq n, and piecewise constant initial density. \par To this end, first, existence for momentum equations with prescribed density is obtained based on maximal L\gaL^\infty_\ga-regularity of the Stokes operator in little Nicolskii space bq,s(\Om)b^{s}_{q,\infty}(\Om), sRs\in\R, exploited in \cite{RiZh14} and existence for divergence problem in bq,s(\Om)b^{-s}_{q,\infty}(\Om), s>0s>0. Then, we obtain an existence result for transport equations in the space of pointwise multipliers for bq,s(\Om)b^{-s}_{q,\infty}(\Om), s>0s>0. Finally, the existence of the inhomogeneous Navier-Stokes equations is proved via an iterate scheme while the proof of uniqueness is done via a Lagrangian approach based on the prior results on momentum equations and transport equation.
