Global strong solution for the Korteweg system with quantum pressure in dimension \(N\geq 2\) (Q514361)

The author proves the existence of global strong solutions for an isothermal model of capillary fluids which can be used as a phase transition model. More precisely, he studies the case of compressible Navier-Stokes system with quantum pressure, corresponding to the Korteweg system with the capillarity coefficient \(\kappa(\varrho)=\kappa_1/\varrho\), \(\varrho\) -- the density. Local in time strong solutions are constructed in suitable Besov spaces. Global in time strong solutions with large initial data are proved to exist when \(\kappa=\mu^2\), \(\mu\) -- the viscosity coefficient.
