Abstract

In this paper we establish a sharp non-uniqueness result for stochastic dd-dimensional (d2d\geq2) incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. First, for every divergence free initial condition in L2L^2 we show existence of infinite many global in time probabilistically strong and analytically weak solutions in the class Lα(Ω,LtpL)L^\alpha\big(\Omega,L^p_tL^\infty\big) for any 1p<2,α11\leq p<2,\alpha\geq1. Second, we prove the above result is sharp in the sense that pathwise uniqueness holds in the class of LtpLqL^p_tL^q for some p[2,],q(2,]p\in[2,\infty],q\in(2,\infty] such that 2p+dq1\frac2{p}+\frac{d}{q}\leq1, which is a stochastic version of Ladyzhenskaya-Prodi-Serrin criteria. Moreover, for stochastic dd-dimensional incompressible Euler equation, existence of infinitely many global in time probabilistically strong and analytically weak solutions is obtained. Compared to the stopping time argument used in \cite{HZZ19, HZZ21a}, we developed a new stochastic version of the convex integration. More precisely, we introduce expectation during convex integration scheme and construct directly solutions on the whole time interval [0,)[0,\infty).
