Dissipative Euler flows and Onsager's conjecture (Q461278): Difference between revisions

The paper deals with the Euler equations, describing the motion of an inviscid prefect fluid: \[ \partial_t v + \text{div} (v \otimes v) + \nabla p = 0, \] \[ \text{div} \, v = 0. \] The Onsager's conjecture states that for any \(\theta < 1/3\) Euler equations have a weak solution, satisfying the Hölder estimate \[ |v(x, t) - v(x, t')| \leq C |x - x'|^{\theta} \] and not conserving the energy. The authors of the paper construct such periodic weak solutions for \(\theta < 1/10\). The method is based on the iterative construction of smooth approximations with help of the convex integration technique.
