Existence of large-data finite-energy global weak solutions to a compressible Oldroyd-B model

A compressible Oldroyd–B type model with stress diffusion is derived from a compressible Navier–Stokes–Fokker–Planck system arising in the kinetic theory of dilute polymeric fluids, where polymer chains immersed in a barotropic, compressible, isothermal, viscous Newtonian solvent, are idealized as p...
