SynopsisIn this paper, we prove local existence and uniqueness of smooth solutions of the Boussinesq equations. We also obtain a blow-up criterion for these smooth solutions. This shows that the maximum norm of the gradient of the passive scalar controls the breakdown of smooth solutions of the Boussinesq equations. As an application of this criterion, we prove global existence of smooth solutions in the case of zero external force.

AbstractIn this paper we prove the local existence and uniqueness of C1+γ solutions of the Boussinesq equations with initial data υ0, θ0 ∈ C1+γ, ω0, ∇θ0 ∈ Lq for 0 < γ < 1 and 1 < q < 2. We also obtain a blow-up criterion for this local solutions. More precisely we show that the gradient of the passive scalar θ controls the breakdown of C1+γ solutions of the Boussinesq equations.

Abstract In this work, we examine the solution properties of the Burgers’ equation with stochastic transport. First, we prove results on the formation of shocks in the stochastic equation and then obtain a stochastic Rankine–Hugoniot condition that the shocks satisfy. Next, we establish the local existence and uniqueness of smooth solutions in the inviscid case and construct a blow-up criterion. Finally, in the viscous case, we prove global existence and uniqueness of smooth solutions.

Abstract In this work, we consider the density-dependent incompressible inviscid Boussinesq equations in $\mathbb{R}^{N}\ (N\geq 2)$ R N ( N ≥ 2 ) . By using the basic energy method, we first give the a priori estimates of smooth solutions and then get a blow-up criterion. This shows that the maximum norm of the gradient velocity field controls the breakdown of smooth solutions of the density-dependent inviscid Boussinesq equations. Our result extends the known blow-up criteria.

We establish the local well-posedness and obtain a blow-up criterion of smooth solutions for the Boussinesq equations in the framework of Triebel-Lizorkin-Lorentz spaces. The main ingredients of our proofs are Littlewood-Paley decomposition and the paradifferential calculus.

<p style='text-indent:20px;'>In this paper, we investigate a system of pseudoparabolic equations with Robin-Dirichlet conditions. First, the local existence and uniqueness of a weak solution are established by applying the Faedo-Galerkin method. Next, for suitable initial datum, we obtain the global existence and decay of weak solutions. Finally, using concavity method, we prove blow-up results for solutions when the initial energy is nonnegative or negative, then we establish here the lifespan for the equations via finding the upper bound and the lower bound for the blow-up times.</p>

We consider the problem of blow-up of smooth solutions for the 3-D Boussinesq equations. Owing to the viscosity, we prove that the maximum norm of the gradient of vorticity controls the breakdown of the solutions; the scalar temperature function is shown to be irrelevant to the breakdown.
