Abstract

The Magneto-Hydrodynamic (MHD) system of equations governs viscous fluids subject to a magnetic field and is derived via a coupling of the Navier-Stokes equations and Maxwell's equations. Recently it has become common to study generalizations of fluids-based differential equations. Here we consider the generalized Magneto-Hydrodynamic alpha (gMHD-α\alpha) system, which differs from the original MHD system by including an additional non-linear terms (indexed by α\alpha), and replacing the Laplace operators by more general Fourier multipliers with symbols of the form ξγ/g(ξ)-|\xi|^\gamma / g(|\xi|). In a paper by Pennington, the problem was considered with initial data in the Sobolev space Hs,2(Rn)H^{s,2}(\mathbb{R}^n) with n3n \geq 3. Here we consider the problem with initial data in Hs,p(Rn)H^{s,p}(\mathbb{R}^n) with n3n \geq 3 and p>2p > 2. Our goal is to minimize the regularity required for obtaining uniqueness of a solution.
