It is shown that the weak solutions to the Beris-Edwards equations converge to the one to the Ericksen-Leslie equations as the elastic coefficient tends to zero. Moreover, the limiting weak solutions to the Ericksen-Leslie equations may have singular points.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2021-05-22T07:07:51.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "landau-de gennes theory", "ericksen-leslie theory", "ericksen-leslie equations", "elastic coefficient tends", "beris-edwards equations converge" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
