Key points

  • Couette flow enhances dissipation in a 3D gravity-induced flame propagation model.
  • Global-in-time well-posedness of the Cauchy problem in ℝ³ is proven.
  • Decay estimates for solutions and their spatial derivatives in Lᵖ norms (p>1) are derived.
  • Analysis relies on a Green's function approach, transferring spectral domain decay to physical space.

Abstract

We study a three-dimensional gravity-induced flame front model under a Couette flow. By exploiting the enhanced dissipation induced by the Couette flow, we prove global-in-time well-posedness of the Cauchy problem in ℝ 3 and derive decay estimates for the solution and its spatial derivatives in L p norms for all p > 1. The analysis is based on a Green’s function approach for the associated variable-coefficient linearized operator. Since an explicit representation of the Green’s function is unavailable, we first establish decay estimates in the spectral domain and then transfer them to physical space. These results show that enhanced dissipation induced by the Couette flow is the key mechanism leading to global existence in the whole space, in the large initial data regime.
