In 1904, Prandtl introduced his famous boundary layer in order to describe the behavior of solutions of Navier Stokes equations near a boundary as the viscosity goes to $0$. His Ansatz has later been justified for analytic data by R.E.…

We investigate the Keller--Segel--(Navier--)Stokes system posed in a smooth bounded domain \(\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N\) with \(N = 2,3\): \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} n_t + u \cdot \nabla n = \Delta n - \nabla \cdot \big( n S(n)\nabla…
