The hydrostatic limit of the Beris-Edwards system in dimension two

We study the scaled anisotropic co-rotational Beris-Edwards system modeling the hydrodynamic motion of nematic liquid crystals in dimension two. We prove the global well-posedness with small analytic data in a thin strip domain. Moreover, we justify the limit to a system involving the hydrostatic Navier-Stokes system with analytic data and prove the convergence.
