Stability and inviscid limit of the 3D anisotropic MHD system near a background magnetic field with mixed fractional partial dissipation

Abstract

A main result of this paper establishes the global stability of the three-dimensional MHD equations near a background magnetic field with mixed fractional partial dissipation with $\alpha, \beta\in(\frac{1}{2}, 1]$. Namely, the velocity equations involve dissipation $(\Lambda_1^{2\alpha} + \Lambda_2^{2\alpha}+\sigma \Lambda_3^{2\alpha})u$ with the case $\sigma=1$ and $\sigma=0$. The magnetic equations without partial magnetic diffusion $\Lambda_i^{2\beta} b_i $ but with the diffusion $(-\Delta)^\beta b$, where $\Lambda_i^{s} (s>0)$ with $i=1, 2, 3$ are the directional fractional operators. Then we focus on the vanishing vertical kinematic viscosity coefficient limit of the MHD system with the case $\sigma=1$ to the case $\sigma=0$. The convergent result is obtained in the sense of $H^1$-norm.
