Abstract

We show local existence and uniqueness of plasma(fluid)-vaccum free boundary problem of magnetohydrodynamic flow in three-dimensional space with infinite depth setting when magnetic field is zero on the free boundary. We use Sobolev-Slobodetskii space which was used in usual free boundary problem in [3,5,6,7,8,9]. We also show that this solution can be extended as long as we want for sufficiently small initial data. Using the result of this paper we will get a unique solution of (kinematic inviscid) - (magnetic non diffusive) free boundary magnetohydrodynamics problem via (kinematic viscosity) - (magnetic diffusivity) limit in [10].
