An interesting problem in gas and fluid dynamics is to understand the
behavior of vacuum states, namely the behavior of the system in the presence
of vacuum. A particular interest is so called physical vacuum which naturally
arises in physical problems. The main difficulty lies in the fact that the physical
systems become degenerate along the boundary. I'll present the well-
posedness result of 3D compressible Euler equations for polytropic gases. This
is a joint work with Nader Masmoudi.
