In this paper, we first prove the global existence of weak solutions to the d-dimensional incompressible inhomogeneous Navier–Stokes equations with initial data \documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$${a_0 \in L^\infty (\mathbb{R}^d), u_0 = (u_0^h, u_0^d) \in \dot{B}^{-1+\frac{d}{p}}_{p, r} (\mathbb{R}^d)}$$\end{document}, which satisfy \documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$${(\mu \| a_0 \|_{L^\infty} + \|u_0^h\|_{\dot{B}^{-1+\frac{d}{p}}_{p, r}}) {\rm exp}(C_r{\mu^{-2r}}\|u_0^d\|_{\dot{B}^{-1+\frac{d}{p}}_{p,r}}^{2r}) \leqq c_0\mu}$$\end{document} for some positive constants c0, Cr and 1 < p < d, 1 < r < ∞. The regularity of the initial velocity is critical to the scaling of this system and is general enough to generate non-Lipschitz velocity fields. Furthermore, with additional regularity assumptions on the initial velocity or on the initial density, we can also prove the uniqueness of such a solution. We should mention that the classical maximal Lp(Lq) regularity theorem for the heat kernel plays an essential role in this context.
