Fourier analysis methods for the compressible Navier-Stokes equations
Résumé
In the last three decades, Fourier analysis methods have known a growing importance in the study of linear and nonlinear PDE's. In particular, techniques based on Littlewood-Paley decomposition and paradifferential calculus have proved to be very efficient for
investigating evolutionary fluid mechanics equations in the whole space or in the torus.
We here give an overview of results that we can get by Fourier analysis and paradifferential calculus, for the compressible
Navier-Stokes equations. We focus on the Initial Value Problem
in the case where the fluid domain is the whole space or the torus in dimension at least two, and also
establish some asymptotic properties of global small solutions.
The time decay estimates in the critical regularity framework that are stated at the end of the survey
are new, to the best of our knowledge.
