Abstract: We study the finite time blow up of smooth solutions to the Compressible Navier-Stokes system when the initial data contain vacuums. We prove that any classical solutions of viscous compressible fluids without heat conduction will blow up in finite time, as long as the initial data has an isolated mass group (see definition in the paper). The results hold regardless of either the size of the initial data or the far fields being vacuum or not. This improves the blowup results of Xin (1998) by removing the crucial assumptions that the initial density has compact support and the smooth solution has finite total energy. Furthermore, the analysis here also yields that any classical solutions of viscous compressible fluids without heat conduction in bounded domains or periodic domains will blow up in finite time, if the initial data have an isolated mass group satisfying some suitable conditions.


The authors study the finite time blow up of smooth solutions to the compressible Navier-Stokes system \[ \frac{\partial\rho}{\partial t}+\operatorname{div}(\rho u)=0, \] \[ \frac{\partial\rho u}{\partial t}+\operatorname{div}(\rho u\otimes u)+\bigtriangledown p=\operatorname{div} T,\quad (x,t)\in\Omega\times \mathbb{R}_+, \] \[ \frac{\partial\rho E}{\partial t}+\operatorname{div}(\rho Eu+pu)=\operatorname{div}(uT)+k\triangle\theta, \] when the initial data is taken as \[ \rho(x,0)=\rho_0(x), u(x,0)=u_0(x), E(x,0)=E_0(x), x)\in\Omega, d\geq2. \] According to the authors any classical solutions of viscous compressible fluids without heat conduction will blow up in finite time, as long as the initial data has a so-called isolated mass group. Furthermore, the authors show that any classical solutions of viscous compressible fluids without heat conduction in bounded domains or periodic domains will blow up in finite time, if the initial data have an isolated mass group satisfying some suitable conditions.
