Abstract
We consider the initial value problem for the vorticity equation in the endpoint critical Sobolev space for . In two dimensions, we prove global propagation of the regularity of the vorticity. In three dimensions, for axisymmetric flows without swirl, we propagate regularity of the vorticity for all times. These are in stark contrast to existing strong ill-posedness results in critical Sobolev spaces for all , which were based on axisymmetric flows without swirl when .
