Rigorous Mathematical Results

Obviously, there is always considerable interest in rigorous formulations of initial-boundary value (I-BV) problems for various systems of partial differ- ential equations that arise in fluid dynamics. This interest stems, primarily, from efforts to creat

The Navier–Stokes (N–S) and Navier–Stokes–Fourier (N–S–F), compressible, viscous equations are more complicated and have no obvious scaling. They are given by correcting the Euler compressible equations with viscous and thermal diffusivity terms, described by second-order derivatives, and also by viscous dissipation – a quadratic function, of conserved quantities such as energy, momentum, and mass. In the incompressible and viscous regime, we obtain the Navier equations: ∇ · u=0, 1 du + ∇p + g = ν0 ∇2 u , dt ρ0

Introduction

Because Euler, Navier, N–S and N–S–F equations involve macroscopic quantities, derivation of these equations from microscopic Hamiltonian dynamics is understood in the sense of the law of large numbers, as the number of particles tends to infinity. In that case, we fix the space and time scales by choosing the typical interparticle distance as the unit length scale and the mean free time of particles as unit time scale. Suppose the range of molecular interactions is of the order of the typical interparticle distance. Then each particle typically interacts with at most an finite number of nearby particles. Let ε (the Kn
