Navier-Stokes equations in the half-space in variable exponent spaces of Clifford-valued functions
Abstract
In this article, we study the steady generalized Navier-Stokes equations in a half-space in the setting of variable exponent spaces. We first establish variable exponent spaces of Clifford-valued functions in a half-space. Then, using this operator theory together with the contraction mapping principle, we obtain the existence and uniqueness of solutions to the stationary Navier-Stokes equations and Navier-Stokes equations with heat conduction in a half-space under suitable hypotheses.
