Analysis of PDEs 2014-07-29 v1

Abstract

We present a simple, short and elementary proof that if vv is a Beltrami flow with a finite energy in R3\mathbb R^3 then v=0v=0. In the case of the Beltrami flows satisfying vLloc(R3)Lq(R3)v\in L^\infty _{loc} (\Bbb R^3) \cap L^q(\Bbb R^3) with q[2,3)q\in [2, 3), or v(x)=O(1/x1+ε)|v(x)|=O(1/|x|^{1+\varepsilon}) for some ε>0\varepsilon >0, we provide a different, simple proof that v=0v=0.
