Abstract

We consider the Navier-Stokes initial value problem, v_t - \nabla v = -\mathcal{P} [ v \cdot \nabla v \right ] + f, v(x, 0) = v_0 (x), x \in \mathbb{R}^3 where P\mathcal{P} is the Hodge-Projection to divergence free vector fields in the assumption that fμ,β< | f |_{\mu, \beta} < \infty and v0μ+2,β<| v_0 |_{\mu+2, \beta} < \infty for β0,μ>3\beta \ge 0, \mu > 3, where f^(k)=supkR3eβk(1+k)μf^(k) | {\hat f} (k) | = \sup_{k \in \mathbb{R}^3} e^{\beta |k|} (1+|k|)^\mu | {\hat f} (k) | and f^(k)=F[f()](k){\hat{f}} (k) = \mathcal{F} [f (\cdot)] (k) is the Fourier transform in xx. By Borel summation methods we show that there exists a classical solution in the form v(x,t)=v0+0ep/tU(x,p)dp v(x, t) = v_0 + \int_0^\infty e^{-p/t} U(x, p) dp t\CCt\in\CC, 1t>α \Re \frac{1}{t} > \alpha, and we estimate α\alpha in terms of v^0μ+2,β| {\hat v}_0 |_{\mu+2, \beta} and f^μ,β | {\hat f} |_{\mu, \beta}. We show that v^(;t)μ+2,β<| {\hat v} (\cdot; t) |_{\mu+2, \beta} < \infty . Existence and tt-analyticity results are analogous to Sobolev spaces ones. An important feature of the present approach is that continuation of vv beyond t=α1t=\alpha^{-1} becomes a growth rate question of U(,p)U(\cdot, p) as p p \to \infty, UU being is a known function. For now, our estimate is likely suboptimal. A second result is that we show Borel summability of vv for v0v_0 and ff analytic. In particular, we obtain Gevrey-1 asymptotics results: vv0+m=1vmtm v \sim v_0 + \sum_{m=1}^\infty v_m t^m , where vmm!A0B0m |v_m | \le m! A_0 B_0^m, with A0A_0 and B0B_0 are given in terms of to v0v_0 and ff and for small tt, with m(t)=B01t1m(t)=\lfloor B_0^{-1}t^{-1}\rfloor, v(x,t)v0(x)m=1m(t)vm(x)tmA0m(t)1/2em(t) | v(x, t) - v_0 (x) - \sum_{m=1}^{m(t)} v_m (x) t^m | \le A_0 m(t)^{1/2} e^{-m(t)}
