Abstract
We consider Euler equations for a perfect gas in R-d, where d greater than or equal to 1. We state that global smooth solutions exist under the hypoth eses (H1)-(H3) on the initial data. We choose a small smooth initial densit y, and a smooth enough initial velocity which forces particles to spread ou t. We also show a result of global in time uniqueness for these global solu tions.
