Abstract: We consider the Dirichlet problem of the Stokes equations in a domain with a shrinking hole in mathbbRd,dgeq2. A typical observation is that, the Lipschitz norm of the domain goes to infinity as the size of the hole goes to zero. Thus, if peq2, the classical results indicate that the W1,p estimate of the solution may go to infinity as the size of the hole tends to zero. In this paper, we give a complete description for the uniform W1,p estimates of the solution for all 1<p<infty. We show that the uniform W1,p estimate holds if and only if d′<p<d (p=2 when d=2). We then give two applications in the study of homogenization problems in fluid mechanics: a generalization of the restriction operator and a construction of Bogovskii type operator in perforated domains with a quantitative estimate of the operator norm.
