Domains of fractional powers of the Stokes operator in \(L_ r\) spaces (Q1069799): Difference between revisions

Using some methods closely related to those of \textit{R. Seeley} [Am. J. Math. 93, 299-309 (1971; Zbl 0218.35034)], the author proves the following main result (theorem 1): ''Let a be a positive real number. For every positive \(\epsilon\) there is a constant C such that \(\| A^ z_ r\| \leq C_{\epsilon a}\exp (\epsilon | Im z|)\) for all z satisfying \(-a<Re z<0\), where \(\| A^ z_ r\|\) is the operator norm of \(A^ z_ r\) and \(A^ z_ r\) is the power operator of the Stokes operator \(A_ r''\). Additionally some results which are useful in treating the Navier-Stokes initial value problem are also obtained.
