On the $8\ddot{I}€$-critical mass threshold of a Patlak-Keller-Segel-Navier-Stokes system

Abstract

In this paper, we proposed a coupled Patlak-Keller-Segel-Navier-Stokes system, which has dissipative free energy. On the plane $\rr^2$, if the total mass of the cells is strictly less than $8\ddot{I}€$, classical solutions exist for any finite time, and their $H^s$-Sobolev norms are almost uniformly bounded in time. For the radially symmetric solutions, this $8\ddot{I}€$-mass threshold is critical. On the torus ${\mathbb{T}}^2$, the solutions are uniformly bounded in time under the same mass constraint.
