Abstract

We study the Euler--Riesz system on the torus Td\mathbb T^d, d=2,3d=2,3: the compressible Euler equations with barotropic pressure p(ϱ)=aϱγp(\varrho)=a\varrho^\gamma (γ>1\gamma>1, a>0a>0), coupled to a repulsive nonlocal force (ϱxKϱ\approx \varrho \nabla_x K \ast \varrho) with Riesz kernel K(x)xβdK(x)\propto|x|^{\beta-d} of order β(0,2)\beta\in(0,2). Since KK is the kernel of the inverse fractional Laplacian (Δ)β/2(-\Delta)^{-\beta/2}, we recast the force through the Caffarelli--Silvestre extension as the trace of a local stress tensor, replacing the nonlocal interaction by a local identity in one extra variable. For a repulsive kernel the total energy is coercive, and we use this to introduce a notion of global-in-time \emph{dissipative solution} for arbitrarily large finite-energy data. Our main result is weak (measure-valued)--strong uniqueness, for every order β(0,2)\beta\in(0,2) and every γ>1\gamma>1 independently: on any interval on which a strong solution exists, every dissipative solution with the same initial data coincides with it and all defects vanish. The proof rests on a suitable adaptation of relative energy.
