## On a linearized Mullins-Sekerka/Stokes system for two-phase flows

We study a linearized Mullins-Sekerka/Stokes system in a bounded domain with various boundary conditions. This system plays an important role to prove the convergence of a Stokes/Cahn-Hilliard system to its sharp interface limit, which is a Stokes/Mullins-Sekerka system, and to prove solvability of the latter system locally in time. We prove solvability of the linearized system in suitable $L^2$-Sobolev spaces with the aid of a maximal regularity result for non-autonomous abstract linear evolution equations.
