Abstract

In this paper, we prove the global well posedness and the decay estimates for a Q-tensor model of nematic liquid crystals in RN, N≥ 3. This system is a coupled system by the Navier–Stokes equations with a parabolic-type equation describing the evolution of the director fields Q. The proof is based on the maximal Lp–Lq regularity and the Lp–Lq decay estimates to the linearized problem.
