Abstract
The Navier–Stokes motions in a cylindrical domain with Navier boundary conditions are considered. First the existence of global regular two-dimensional solutions is proved. The solutions are such that norms bounded with respect to time are controlled by the same constant for all t∈R+. Assuming that the initial velocity and the external force are sufficiently close to the initial velocity and the external force of a two-dimensional solution, we prove existence of global three-dimensional solutions which remain close to the two-dimensional solution for all time. In this sense we have stability of two-dimensional solutions. Thanks to the Navier boundary conditions the nonlinear term in the two-dimensional Navier–Stokes equations does not influence the energy estimate. This implies that the global two-dimensional solution is proved without any structural restrictions on the external force, initial data or viscosity.
