Abstract: We obtain a global existence result for the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations with a large class of data allowing growth at spatial infinity. Namely, we show the global existence of suitable weak solutions when the initial data belongs to the weighted space mathringMmathcalC2,2 introduced in [Z. Bradshaw and I. Kukavica, Existence of suitable weak solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations for intermittent data, J. Math. Fluid Mech. to appear]. This class is strictly larger than currently available spaces of initial data for global existence and includes all locally square integrable discretely self-similar data. We also identify a sub-class of data for which solutions exhibit eventual regularity on a parabolic set in space-time.


The authors construct local-in-time weak solutions to the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes system. They require that initial data are locally square integrable but, unlike the recent results, they do not assume uniform \(L^2\) bounds. Their solutions are suitable in the Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg sense, i.e. they satisfy the local energy inequality. These solutions make sense in several critical spaces for 3D NSE such as the Lebesgue space \(L^3\), the Lorenz space \(L^{3,\infty}\), as well as the Morrey space \(M^{2,1}\) over \(\mathbb R^3\).
