Abstract

In bounded smooth domains ΩRN\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^N, N{2,3}N\in\{2,3\}, considering the chemotaxis--fluid system \begin{cases} \begin{split} & n_t + u\cdot \nabla n &= \Delta n - \chi \nabla \cdot(\frac{n}{c}\nabla c) &\\ & c_t + u\cdot \nabla c &= \Delta c - c + n &\\ & u_t + \kappa (u\cdot \nabla) u &= \Delta u + \nabla P + n\nabla \Phi & \end{split}\end{cases} with singular sensitivity, we prove global existence of classical solutions for given ΦC2(Ωˉ)\Phi\in C^2(\bar{\Omega}), for κ=0\kappa=0 (Stokes-fluid) if N=3N=3 and κ{0,1}\kappa\in\{0,1\} (Stokes- or Navier--Stokes fluid) if N=2N=2 and under the condition that 0<χ<2N. 0<\chi<\sqrt{\frac{2}{N}}.
