In this study, we are concerned with the asymptotic stability towards a rarefaction wave of the solution to an outflow problem for the Navier-Stokes Korteweg equations of a compressible fluid in the half space. We assume that the space-asymptotic states and the boundary data satisfy some conditions so that the time-asymptotic state of this solution is a rarefaction wave. Then we show that the rarefaction wave is non-linearly stable, as time goes to infinity, provided that the strength of the wave is weak and the initial perturbation is small. The proof is mainly based on $L^{2}$ -energy method and some time-decay estimates in $L^{p}$ -norm for the smoothed rarefaction wave.

We investigate the time-asymptotic stability of planar rarefaction wave for the 3D bipolar Vlasov–Poisson Boltzmann (VPB) system, based on the micro–macro decompositions introduced in [T. P. Liu and S. H. Yu, Boltzmann equation: Micro–macro decompositions and positivity of shock profiles, Comm. Math. Phys. 246 (2004) 133–179; Energy method for the Boltzmann equation, Physica D 188 (2004) 178–192] and our new observations on the underlying wave structures of the equation to overcome the difficulties due to the wave propagation along the transverse directions and its interactions with the planar rarefaction wave. Note that this is the first stability result of basic wave patterns for bipolar VPB system in three dimensions.
