  • Abstract

We study 2D and 3D Prandtl equations of degenerate hyperbolic type, and establish without any structural assumption the Gevrey well-posedness with Gevrey index ≤ 2. Compared with the classical parabolic Prandtl equations, the loss of the derivatives, caused by the hyperbolic feature coupled with the degeneracy, cannot be overcame by virtue of the classical cancellation mechanism that developed for the parabolic counterpart. Inspired by the abstract Cauchy-Kowalewski theorem and by virtue of the hyperbolic feature, we give in this text a straightforward proof, basing on an elementary $L^2$ energy estimate. In particular our argument does not involve the cancellation mechanism used efficiently for the classical Prandtl equations.
