Global weak solution for a chemotaxis Navier-Stokes system with \(p\)-Laplacian diffusion and singular sensitivity (Q6158304)

In this paper, the authors consider a chemotaxis-Navier-Stokes system with \(p\)-Laplacian diffusion and singular sensitivity in a bounded convex domain \(\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^3\) with smooth boundary \[ \begin{aligned} &n_t+u\cdot\nabla n=\nabla\cdot(|\nabla n|^{p-2}\nabla n)-\chi\nabla\cdot(\frac{n}{c}\nabla c)+n(r-\mu n^\delta), &&(x,t)\in Q, \\ &c_t+u\cdot\nabla c=\Delta c-nc,&&(x,t)\in Q, \\ &u_t=\Delta u+\nabla P+n\nabla\Phi,&&(x,t)\in Q, \\ &\nabla\cdot u=0,&&(x,t)\in Q, \end{aligned} \] where \(Q = \Omega\times(0,\infty)\), \(p\ge2\), \(r\in\mathbb{R}\) and \(\mu, \chi, \delta\) are positive constants. It is shown that under an appropriate hypothesis for \(p\) and \(\delta\), there exists a locally bounded global weak solution of the corresponding initial-boundary problem.
