Construction of weak solutions of a certain stochastic Navier–Stokes equation

Abstract

We prove the existence of weak solutions of stochastic Navier–Stokes equation on a two-dimensional torus, which appears in a certain variational problem. Our equation does not satisfy the coercivity condition. We construct its weak solutions due to an approximation by a sequence of solutions of equations with enlarged viscosity terms and then by showing an a priori estimate for them.
