Global well-posedness of 2D non-resistive compressible MHD system

Abstract

This paper investigates the non-resistive compressible magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations in ${\mathbb{R}}^2$. We establish the global existence and stability of classical solutions for initial data sufficiently close to a constant equilibrium state. A distinguishing feature of our result is that global stability is derived solely from pure $H^s$ energy estimates and an intrinsic $L^2$ time-decay mechanism, thereby bypassing the traditional requirement for the initial data of $L^1$ integrability or negative-order Sobolev norm regularity. To achieve this goal, we first introduce a specific quantity motivated by the effective viscous flux, which intrinsically couples the density and magnetic field perturbations. Secondly, to overcome the critical time-decay obstacle arising from the absence of negative-order regularity, we develop a novel pseudo-negative-derivative technique. Moreover, we regard the wildest nonlinear term as a whole and bypass the need to obtain time-decay estimate for individual components. These approaches enable us to close the higher-order energy estimate entirely within standard Sobolev spaces.
