Abstract

We consider the incompressible limit of the compressible Euler equation in the half-space R+n. It is proved that the solutions of the non-dimensionalized compressible Euler equation converge to the solution of the incompressible Euler equation when the Mach number tends to zero. If the initial data υ0 do not satisfy the condition `▽·v0 = 0', then the initial layer will appear.
