Abstract
In this paper, we study the transition threshold of the 3D Couette flow in Sobolev space at high Reynolds number . It was proved that if the initial velocity satisfies , then the solution of the 3D Navier-Stokes equations is global in time and does not transition away from the Couette flow. This result confirms the transition threshold conjecture in physical literatures.
