From MaRDI portal
Publication:2641667





The mathematical formulation of the problem indicated in the title consists of two nonlinear coupled evolution equations \(\frac{\partial s}{\partial t} = - \text{div } J_s - D_0(x)s - D_0(x) \times m\) and \(\frac{\partial m}{\partial t} = - m \times (h+s) + \alpha m \times \frac{\partial m}{\partial t}\), where \(J_s := m \otimes J_e -D_0(x)[\nabla s - \beta m \otimes(\nabla s \times m)]\), \(h:=-\nabla_m \Phi + \Delta m + h_d\), \(\Phi(m) := m_2^2 + m_3^3\) with appropiate boundary and initial conditions, \(D_0\), \(\alpha\) and \(J_e\) are data. The authors introduce a weak formulation and prove global existence of weak solutions by a Galerkin argument. They remark that uniqueness in weak sense cannot hold.
