Mathematical theory of stationary miscible filtration (Q1173788)

The problem in the title amounts to the nonlinear elliptic system \[ (1)\quad v=-K(\mu\circ c)^{-1}(\nabla p-f);\quad (2)\quad\text{div}v=q^ I-q^ P;\quad (3)\quad -\text{div}(D^ \beta\nabla c-vc)+q^ Pc=q^ I, \] where the unknowns \(p\), \(v\), \(c\) are interpreted as pressure, velocity and concentration, respectively, \(K\), \(\mu\), \(f\), \(q^ I\), \(q^ P\) are given functions and \(D^ \beta\) is a given (nonlinear) operator. If suitable boundary conditions are added to (1)-(3) then the author shows existence and uniqueness for small data provided that the ''mobility ratio'' \(M\) is not too large. (\(M\) depends on the coefficients of the problem in a complicated way.) The author announces results for a corresponding nonstationary problem.
