The global well-posedness of the compressible fluid model of Korteweg type for the critical case

Abstract

In this paper, we consider the compressible fluid model of Korteweg type in a critical case where the derivative of pressure equals to $0$ at the given constant state. It is shown that the system admits a unique, global strong solution for small initial data in the maximal $L_p$-$L_q$ regularity class. As a result, we also prove the decay estimates of the solutions to the nonliner problem. In order to obtain the global well-posedness for the critical case, we show $L_p$-$L_q$ decay properties of solutions to the linearized equations under an additional assumption for a low frequencies.
