Ill-posedness for Kelvin-Helmholtz problems of compressible Euler fluids with a radiation field

Jiakai Ma, Binqiang Xie

Abstract:
We prove the nonlinear ill-posedness of Kelvin-Helmholtz problems for compressible Euler fluids with a radiation field. For this we assume that the magnitude of the Mach number is between some small enough constant \(\epsilon_0\) and \(\sqrt{2(1+\ell)}\) in which \(\ell\) is the radiation parameter.
