We show the $H^1$ stability of shear flows of Prandtl type: $U^\nu = (U_s(y/\sqrt{\nu}),0)$, in the steady two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations, under the natural assumptions that $U_s(Y) > 0$ for $Y > 0$, $U_s(0) = 0$, and $U_s'(0) >…
Despite the physical importance, there are limited mathematical theories for the compressible Navier-Stokes equations with strong boundary layers. This is mainly due to the absence of a stream function structure, unlike the extensively…
