This paper deals with the Keller–Segel–Navier–Stokes model with indirect signal production in a three-dimensional (3D) bounded domain with smooth boundary. When the logistic-type degradation here is weaker than the usual quadratic case, it is proved that for any sufficiently regular initial data, the associated no-flux/no-flux/no-flux/Dirichlet problem possesses at least one globally defined solution in an appropriate generalized sense, and that this solution is uniformly bounded in [Formula: see text] with any [Formula: see text]. Moreover, under an explicit condition on the chemotactic sensitivity, these solutions are shown to stabilize toward the corresponding spatially homogeneous state in the sense of some suitable norms. We underline that the same results were established for the corresponding system with direct signal production in a well-known result if the degradation is quadratic. Our result rigorously confirms that the indirect signal production mechanism genuinely contributes to the global solvability of the 3D Keller–Segel–Navier–Stokes system.

We prove a low Mach number limit for a dispersive fluid system [3] which contains third-order corrections to the compressible Navier–Stokes. We show that the classical solutions to this system in the whole space ℝn converge to classical solutions to ghost-effect systems [7]. Our analysis follows the framework in [4], which is built on the methodology developed by Métivier and Schochet [6] and Alazard [1] for systems up to the second order. The key new ingredient is the application of the entropy structure of the dispersive fluid system. This structure enables us to treat cases not covered in [4] and to simplify the analysis in [4].
