Abstract

We prove the local wellposedness of three-dimensional incompressible inhomogeneous Navier–Stokes equations with initial data in the critical Besov spaces, without assumptions of small density variation. Furthermore, if the initial velocity field is small enough in the critical Besov space \({\dot B^{1/2}_{2,1}(\mathbb{R}^3)}\) , this system has a unique global solution.
