摘要
We study a general Ericksen-Leslie system with non-constant density, which describes the flow of nematic liquid crystal. In particular the model investigated here is associated with Parodi's relation. We prove that in two dimension, the solutions are globally regular with general data, and in three dimension, the solutions are globally regular with small initial data or for a short time with large data. Moreover, a weak-strong type of uniqueness result is obtained.
