Description/Abstract

The interior regularity problem for the Leray weak solutions u of the Navier—Stokes equations in a domain z ² Rn with n > 3 is investigated. It is shown that u is regular in a neighbourhood of a point (x0,t0) ] z 2 (0, T) if there exist constants 0 h &thetas; < 1 and small k > 0 such that lim ess sup |t – t0|&thetas;/2|x – x0|1-&thetas; |u(x,t)| < k
kMXQ1/k(xo,to) with Q1/k (x0,t0) = {x ] Rn; |x – x0 < 1/k} 2 (t0 – 1/k2,t0 + 1/k2). If (x0,t0) is an irregular point of u, there exists a sequence of non-zero measure sets Eki ² Q1/ki (x0,t0) for i = 1,2,..., such that the blow-up rate estimate |u(x,t)| > k|t – t0|-&thetas;/2|x – x 0|-1+&thetas;,(x,t) ] Eki holds.
