Abstract

We prove global well-posedness and asymptotic stability for the three-dimensional Peskin problem, which models a closed, elastic membrane immersed in an incompressible Stokes fluid. We work with initial data in the optimal regularity space W1,(S2)W^{1,\infty}(\mathbb{S}^2), which may contain infinitely many corners. These initial configurations are instantly desingularized by the flow's parabolic smoothing effect, becoming smooth for all t>0t > 0. Then we establish that the solutions converge exponentially in the C1C^1 topology to a translated and dilated conformal sphere. The stability is achieved by combining our nonlinear estimates with an exact structural decoupling of the 10-dimensional manifold of conformal steady states, demonstrating that the infinite-dimensional dissipative perturbation is strictly controlled. The core of our analysis is a functional framework on the sphere S2\mathbb{S}^2 that uses spectral Littlewood-Paley projections to control the highly singular multilinear operators arising from the fluid nonlinearity
