Abstract

We address the global regularity for the 2D Boussinesq equations with positive viscosity and zero diffusivity. We prove that for data (u0, ρ0) in Hs × Hs-1, where 1 < s < 2, the persistence of regularity holds, i.e., the solution (u(t), ρ(t)) exists and belongs to Hs ×Hs-1 for all positive t. Given the existing results, this provides the persistence of regularity for all s ≥ 0. In addition, we address the Hs × Hs persistence and establish it for all s > 1.
