The global existence issue for the compressible Euler system with Poisson or Helmholtz couplings

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

We consider the Cauchy problem for the barotropic Euler system coupled to Helmholtz or Poisson equations, in the whole space. We assume that the initial density is small enough, and that the initial velocity is close to some reference vector field [Formula: see text] such that the spectrum of [Formula: see text] is positive and bounded away from zero. We prove the existence of a global unique solution with (fractional) Sobolev regularity, and algebraic time decay estimates. Our work extends Grassin and Serre’s papers [Existence de solutions globales et régulières aux équations d’Euler pour un gaz parfait isentropique, C. R. Acad. Sci. Paris Sér. I 325 (1997) 721–726, 1997; Global smooth solutions to Euler equations for a perfect gas, Indiana Univ. Math.

Fourier Grenoble 47 (1997) 139–159] dedicated to the compressible Euler system without coupling and with integer regularity exponents.
