Description

The equations of evolution of partially ionized plasmas have been far more studied in one of their many simplifications than in its original form. They present a relation between the velocity of each species, plus the magnetic and electric fields, which yield as an analog of Ohm's law a certain elliptic equation. Therefore, the equations represent a functional evolution system, not a classical one. Nonetheless, a priori estimates and theorems of existence may be obtained in appropriate Sobolev spaces.
