On axially symmetric flows in \(\mathbb{R}^3\) (Q1806186)

The authors prove several results on existence, uniqueness and regularity of a weak solution of Navier-Stokes equations for axisymmetric fluid flows that occupy the entire three-dimensional space. Several theorems are proved by using the Banach fixed point theorem. It is also shown that, for axisymmetric and smooth data, there exists a uniquely determined axisymmetric solution of the Euler equation in the entire three-dimensional space.
