Stability for the 2D incompressible MHD equations with only magnetic diffusion

Xiaoping Zhai

Abstract

This paper presents a global stability result on perturbations near a background magnetic field to the 2D incompressible magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations with only magnetic diffusion on the periodic domain. The stability result provides a significant example for the stabilizing effects of the magnetic field on electrically conducting fluids. In addition, we obtain an explicit large-time decay rate of the solutions.

Key Result

Theorem 1.1

Assume $\mathbf{n}$ satisfies the Diophantine condition (diufantu). Let $\alpha>0, \beta>0$ be two arbitrarily fixed constants. For any ${N}\ge (2\beta+3)r+\alpha+2\beta+5$ with $r>1$, and $( \mathbf{u} _0, \mathbf{B} _0)\in H^{N}( \mathbb{T} ^2)$ with If there exists a small constant $\varepsilon$ such that Then the system m admits a global solution $( \mathbf{u} , \mathbf{B} )\in C([0,\infty
