  • While the existence of regular solutions is still an open problem, there are many interesting sufficient conditions which guarantee that a given weak solution is smooth

Introduction We study the regularity condition of weak solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations ut − Δu u·∇ u ∇π 0, 1.1 div u 0, in 0, T × R3, 1.2 u|t 0 u0 x , x ∈ R3. For u0 ∈ L2 R3 with div u0 0 in R3, Leray 1 constructed global weak solutions.
