Uniqueness result for the 3-D Navier-Stokes-Boussinesq equations with horizontal dissipation (Q1995030): Difference between revisions

The authors consider the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes-Boussinesq system with horizontal viscosity and diffusion, and vertical buoyancy force. This system is used in the description of geophysical flows in situations where both the rotation and the stratification have to be taken into account. The primary goal of the paper is to extend the uniqueness result by \textit{D. Iftimie} [SIAM J. Math. Anal. 33, No. 6, 1483--1493 (2002; Zbl 1011.35105)] concerning the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations with vanishing vertical viscosity, to this system. In Theorem 1, the authors state a result in the same spirit, with regularity of the solutions taken in anisotropic Sobolev spaces. In the second part of the paper, the authors establish a global well-posedness result for the same Navier-Stokes-Boussinesq system supplemented with axisymmetric data without swirl.
