Abstract

In this paper, we study the Cauchy problem of density-dependent Boussinesq equations for magnetohydrodynamics convection on the whole 2D space. We first establish global and unique strong solution for the 2D Cauchy problem when the initial density includes vacuum state. Furthermore, we consider that the initial data can be arbitrarily large. We derive a consistent priori estimate by the energy method, and extend the local strong solutions to the global strong solutions. Finally, we obtain the large-time decay rates of the gradients of velocity, temperature field, magnetic field and pressure.
