Global small solution and optimal decay rate for the Korteweg system in Besov spaces

Abstract

In this paper we consider the Cauchy problem to the Korteweg system with the general pressure in dimension $d\geq2$, and establish the global well-posedness of strong solution for the small initial data in $L^p$ type critical Besov spaces by using the Friedrich method and compactness arguments. Furthermore, we also obtain the optimal decay rate for the Korteweg system in $L^2$ type Besov spaces.
