Abstract
The initial boundary value problem for the compressible Navier–Stokes equation is considered in an infinite layer of \({\mathbf{R}^{2}}\) . It is proved that if the Reynolds and Mach numbers are sufficiently small, then strong solutions to the compressible Navier–Stokes equation around parallel flows exist globally in time for sufficiently small initial perturbations. The large time behavior of the solution is described by a solution of a one-dimensional viscous Burgers equation. The proof is given by a combination of spectral analysis of the linearized operator and a variant of the Matsumura–Nishida energy method.
