Well-posedness of linearized Taylor equations in magnetohydrodynamics
  This paper is a first step in the study of the so-called Taylor model, introduced by J.B. Taylor in \cite{Taylor}. This system of nonlinear PDE's is derived from the viscous incompressible MHD equations, through an asymptotics relevant to the Earth's magnetic field. We consider here a simple class of linearizations of the Taylor model, for which we show well-posedness.
