Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to present our recent progress on the local theory of classical solutions for compressible isentropic Navier-Stokes equations with density dependent viscosities in a power law and vacuum, which is a long-standing open problem due to the very high degeneracy caused by vacuum for this system. We will also mention some related open problems of high mathematical interest for this system.
