On the infinite Prandtl number limit in two-dimensional magneto-convection

In this paper, the infinite limit of the Prandtl number is justified for the two-dimensional incompressible magneto-convection, which describes the nonlinear interaction between the Rayleigh-B$\acute{\mathrm{e}}$nard convection and an externally magnetic field. Both the convergence rates and the thickness of initial layer are obtained. Moreover, based on the method of formal asymptotic expansions, an effective dynamics is constructed to simulate the motion within the initial layer.
