Abstract

We address the global persistence of analyticity and Gevrey-class regularity of solutions to the two and three-dimensional visco-elastic second-grade fluid equations. We obtain an explicit novel lower bound on the radius of analyticity of the solutions that does not vanish as t → ∞, and which is independent of the Rivlin-Ericksen material parameter α. Applications to the damped incompressible Euler equations are also given.
