Abstract

The compressible Euler equations with dissipation and/or dispersion correction are widely used in the area of applied sciences, for instance, plasma physics, charge transport in semiconductor devices, astrophysics, geophysics, etc. We consider the compressible Euler equation with density-dependent (degenerate) viscosities and capillarity, and investigate the global existence of weak solutions and asymptotic limit.
