Abstract
In this paper, we consider the Prandtl system for the non-stationary boundary layer in the vicinity of a point where the outer flow has zero velocity. It is assumed that U(t, x, y) = x m U 1(t, x), where 0 . x . L and m . 1. We establish the global existence of the weak solution to this problem. Moreover the uniqueness of the weak solution is proved.
