The well-posedness theory for Euler–Poisson fluids with non-zero heat conduction

Abstract

This paper is devoted to the Euler–Poisson equations for fluids with non-zero heat conduction, arising in semiconductor science. Due to the thermal effect of the temperature equation, the local well-posedness theory by Xu and Kawashima (2014) for generally symmetric hyperbolic systems in spatially critical Besov spaces does not directly apply. To deal with this difficulty, we develop a generalized version of the Moser-type inequality by using Bony's decomposition. With a standard iteration argument, we then establish the local well-posedness of classical solutions to the Cauchy problem for intial data in spatially Besov spaces.
