Stability on 3D Boussinesq system with mixed partial dissipation by Lin Hongxia, Liu Sen, Guo Xiaochuan, You Ruiqi

“…In the article, we are concerned with the three-dimensional anisotropic Boussinesq equations with the velocity dissipation in x2{x}_{2} and x3{x}_{3} directions and the thermal diffusion in only x3{x}_{3} direction. When the spatial domain is the whole space R3{{\mathbb{R}}}^{3}, the global well-posedness and stability problem for the partially dissipated Boussinesq system remain the extremely challenging open problems. …”
