Abstract

A domain in R3\mathbb{R}^3 that touches the x3x_3 axis at one point is found with the following property. For any initial value in a C2C^2 class, the axially symmetric Navier Stokes equations with Navier slip boundary condition has a finite energy solution that stays bounded for any given time, i.e. no finite time blow up of the fluid velocity occurs. The result seems to be the first case where the Navier-Stokes regularity problem is solved beyond dimension 2.
