On the geometric regularity conditions for the 3D Navier-Stokes equations

Abstract: We prove geometrically improved version of Prodi-Serrin type blow-up criterion. Let

v

and

o m e g a

be the velocity and the vorticity of solutions to the 3D Navier-Stokes equations and denote

f_{+} = m a x f, 0

,

Q_{T} = B b b R^{3} i m e s (0, T)

. If

with

3 / g a m m a + 2 / a l p h a l e q 1

for some

g a m m a > 3

and

, then the local smooth solution

v

of the Navier-Stokes equations on

(0, T)

can be continued to

(0, T + d e l t a)

for some

d e l t a > 0

. We also prove localized version of a special case of this. Let

v

be a suitable weak solution to the Navier-tokes equations in a space-time domain containing

z_{0} = (x_{0}, t_{0})

, let

Q_{z_{0}, r} = B_{x_{0}, r} i m e s (t_{0} - r^{2}, t_{0})

be a parabolic cylinder in the domain. We show that if either

l e f t {l e f t (v i m e s f r a c o m e g a | o m e g a | i g h t) c d o t f r a c a b l a i m e s o m e g a | a b l a i m e s o m e g a | i g h t}_{+} i n L_{x, t}^{g a m m a, a l p h a} (Q_{z_{0}, r})

with

f r a c 3 g a m m a + f r a c 2 a l p h a l e q 1

, or

l e f t {l e f t (f r a c v | v | i m e s o m e g a i g h t) c d o t f r a c a b l a i m e s o m e g a | a b l a i m e s o m e g a | i g h t}_{+} i n L_{x, t}^{g a m m a, a l p h a} (Q_{z_{0}, r})

with

f r a c 3 g a m m a + f r a c 2 a l p h a l e q 2

, (

g a m m a g e q 2

,

a l p h a g e q 2

), then

z_{0}

is a regular point for

v

. This improves previous local regularity criteria for the suitable weak solutions.
