The role of density in the energy conservation for the isentropic compressible Euler equations (2110.07267v1)

Abstract: In this paper, we study Onsager's conjecture on the energy conservation for the isentropic compressible Euler equations via establishing the energy conservation criterion involving the density $\varrho\in L^{k}(0,T;L^{l}(\mathbb{T}^{d}))$. The motivation is to analysis the role of the integrability of density of the weak solutions keeping energy in this system, since almost all known corresponding results require $\varrho\in L^{\infty}(0,T;L^{\infty}(\mathbb{T}^{d}))$. Our results imply that the lower integrability of the density $\varrho$ means that more integrability of the velocity $v$ are necessary in energy conservation and the inverse is also true. The proof relies on the Constantin-E-Titi type and Lions type commutators on mollifying kernel.
