A logarithmically improved blow-up criterion of smooth solutions for nematic liquid crystal flows with partial viscosity


Yin-Xia Wang

 
ABSTRACT:     In this paper we investigate the Cauchy problem for nematic liquid crystal flows with partial viscosity in ℝ3. A logarithmically improved blow-up criterion of smooth solutions is established. The result is analogous to the celebrated Beale-Kato-Majda type criterion for the inviscid Euler equations of incompressible fluids.
