A blow-up criterion for the compressible liquid crystals system
arXiv:1011.4399
Abstract
In this paper, we establish a blow-up criterion for the compressible liquid crystals equations in terms of the gradient of the velocity only, similar to the Beale-Kato-Majda criterion \cite{majda} for ideal incompressible flows and the criterion obtained by Huang and Xin \cite{xin2} for the compressible Navier-Stokes equations.
