Global solutions to 2-D inhomogeneous Navier-Stokes system with general velocity (Q386263)

The present paper deals with the global existence of solutions to the two-dimensional incompressible inhomogeneous Navier-Stokes equations with initial data in the scaling invariant Besov spaces and without size restriction for the initial velocity. The main goal of the paper is to provide a global wellposedness result for the density-dependent incompressible inhomogeneous Navier-Stokes equations with variable viscosity in a critical functional framework which is invariant by the scaling of the equations and under a nonlinear smallness condition on fluctuation of the initial density which has to be doubly exponential small compared with the size of the initial velocity. The global existence of the solution has been proved in the case of constant viscosity and piecewise constant initial density which is away from vacuum and has small jumps at the interface.
