✦ Synopsis
In this paper we consider the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations with a density-dependent viscosity in a bounded domain of R n (n = 2, 3). We prove the local existence of unique strong solutions for all initial data satisfying a natural compatibility condition. This condition is also necessary for a very general initial data. Moreover, we provide a blow-up criterion for the regularity of the strong solution. For these results, the initial density need not be strictly positive. It may vanish in an open subset of .

We re-prove various uniqueness theorems for the Navier-Stokes equations, stating the assumptions in terms of multipliers between Sobolev spaces instead of Lebesgue or Lorentz spaces.
