Boundary layer analysis for the 2D chemotaxis-Navier-Stokes system with logarithmic sensitivity, Part I: Well-posedness

Abstract

This is the first part of a two-part work concerning the boundary layer convergence for chemotaxis-Navier-Stokes system in a two-dimensional half-space. In this paper, we investigate the chemotacxis-Navier-Stokes system with the logarithmic singularity under Navier-slip boundary conditions. More precisely, we perform an exact asymptotic expansion for the chemotaxis Navier-Stokes system with viscous coefficient $\epsilon >0$, and obtain partial boundary layer profiles, establishing the well-posedness of the corresponding boundary layer profiles. Specially, we also establish the local well-posedness of solutions to the supercritical chemotaxis Euler equation (with $\epsilon =0$) by overcoming the difficulty from the disappearance of diffusion terms.
