On the well-posedness of incompressible flow in porous media with supercritical diffusion

Abstract

In this article we study the heat transfer equation with a supercritical diffusion term of an incompressible fluid in porous media governed by Darcy's law. We obtain the global well-posedness for small initial data belonging to critical Besov spaces and the local well-posedness for arbitrary initial data. We further show the pointwise blowup criterion.
