## The 3D liquid crystal system with Cannone type initial data and large vertical velocity

 School of Mathematical Sciences, Nanjing Normal University, Nanjing 210023, China

The hydrodynamic theory of the nematic liquid crystals was established by Ericksen [4] and Leslie [8]. In this paper, based on a new technique, we obtain global well-posedness to a simplified model introduced by Lin [9] in the critical Besov space with Cannone type initial data and large vertical velocity, which improves the main result in [15]. In addition, the small condition on $u_0$ is independent of another small condition on $d_0-\bar{d}_0$, which is quite different from the previous works [15,16].
