Abstract

We study the global in time classical solutions to the two-fluid incompressible Navier–Stokes–Maxwell system with (solenoidal) Ohm’s law with small initial data. This system is a coupling of the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations with the Maxwell equations through the Lorenz force and Ohm’s law for the current. In this proof, we employ the decay properties of both the electric field $E$ and the wave equation with linear damping of the divergence free magnetic field $B$.
