Weak solutions to PDEs (35D30) Existence, uniqueness, and regularity theory for incompressible viscous fluids (76D03) Stokes and related (Oseen, etc.) flows (76D07)

Abstract: Motivated by the study of the corner singularities in the so-called cavity flow, we establish in this article, the existence and uniqueness of solutions in

L^{2} (O m e g a)^{2}

for the Stokes problem in a domain

O m e g a,

when

O m e g a

is a smooth domain or a convex polygon. We establish also a trace theorem and show that the trace of

u

can be arbitrary in

L^{2} (p a r t i a l O m e g a)^{2} .

The results are also extended to the linear evolution Stokes problem.
