Abstract

This paper considers the problem of the local existence for the generalized MHD equations with fractional dissipative terms \(\Lambda ^{2\alpha } u\) for the velocity field and \(\Lambda ^{2\beta } b\) for the magnetic field, respectively. Based on some new commutator estimates, local existence for the generalized MHD equations is established, which recovers and improves previous results.
