Abstract

In this work we investigate some regularization properties of the incompressible Euler equations and of the fractional Navier-Stokes equations where the dissipative term is given by (Δ)α(-\Delta)^\alpha, for a suitable power α(0,12)\alpha \in (0,\frac{1}{2}) (the only meaningful range for this result). Assuming that the solution uLt(Cxθ)u \in L^\infty _t(C^\theta_x) for some θ(0,1)\theta \in (0,1) we prove that uCt,xθu \in C^\theta_{t,x}, the pressure pCt,x2θp\in C^{2\theta-}_{t,x} and the kinetic energy eCt2θ1θe \in C^{\frac{2\theta}{1-\theta}}_t. This result was obtained for the Euler equations in [Is13] with completely different arguments and we believe that our proof, based on a regularization and a commutator estimate, gives a simpler insight on the result.
