Well Posedness for the Motion of a Compressible Liquid with Free Surface Boundary

Abstract: We study the motion of a compressible perfect liquid body in vacuum. This can be thought of as a model for the motion of the ocean or a star. The free surface moves with the velocity of the liquid and the pressure vanishes on the free surface. This leads to a free boundary problem for Euler's equations, where the regularity of the boundary enters to highest order. We prove local existence in Sobolev spaces assuming a "physical condition", related to the fact that the pressure of a fluid has to be positive.

“…The one-phase problem (where one of the two phases is replaced by vacuum) has been solved for the case of an incompressible liquid by Coutand and Shkoller [12] and [11] with and without surface tension and previously by Lindblad [18] without surface tension, and for the case of a compressible liquid by Coutand et al [10] with and without surface tension and previously by Lindblad [17] without surface tension. Also, the case of a gas-vacuum boundary has been solved under certain boundary conditions by Coutand and Shkoller [13] and Jang and Masmoudi [16].…”

“…Rather than follow the Nash-Moser scheme of [4,9,17,20], which can often be very technical, we introduce a degenerate artificial viscosity type regularisation inspired by [10,13,16], and prove a priori estimates on the nonlinear equations in a somewhat similar manner to [6], but using a change of coordinates which is a simple lift of the graph of the free-surface, similar to that of [7], rather than Lagrangian coordinates.…”
