Abstract
We consider a coupled system of Keller-Segel-type equations and the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in spatial dimension two and three. We first establish the existence of a weak solution of a Fokker-Plank equation in the Wasserstein space under the assumption that initial mass is integrable and has finite entropy. As a result, we construct solutions of Keller-Segel-Navier-Stokes equations such that the density of biological organism belongs to the absolutely continuous curves in the Wasserstein space, in the case that its initial mass is assumed to be bounded and integrable.
