Abstract

The Cauchy problem in ℝ3for the chemotaxis-Navier 'Equation Presented' is considered. Under suitable conditions on the initial data (n0, c0, u0), with regard to the crucial first component requiring that n0∈ L1(ℝ3) be nonnegative and such that (n0+ 1) ln(n0+ 1) ∈ L1(ℝ3), a globally defined weak solution with (n. c, u)|t=0= (n0, c0, u0) is constructed. Apart from that, assuming that moreover ∫ℝ3n0(x) ln(1+|x|2)dx is finite, it is shown that a weak solution exists which enjoys further regularity features and preserves mass in an appropriate sense.
