Global Existence and Regularity for the Active Liquid Crystal System
arXiv:1509.02608
Abstract
In this paper, we study the active hydrodynamics, described in the Q-tensor liquid crystal framework. We prove the existence of global weak solutions in dimension two and three, with suitable initial datas. By using Littlewood-Paley decomposition, we also get the higher regularity of the weak solutions and the uniqueness of weak-strong solutions in dimension two.
