On global motions of a compressible barotropic and selfgravitating gas with density-dependent viscosities

We consider the Cauchy problem for the equations of selfgravitating motions of a barotropic gas with density-dependent viscosities μ(ρ), and λ(ρ) satisfying the Bresch–Desjardins condition, when the pressure P(ρ) is not necessarily a monotone function of the density. We prove that this problem admits a global weak solution provided that the adiabatic exponent γ associated with P(ρ) satisfies ${\gamma > \frac{4}{3}}${\gamma > \frac{4}{3}}.
