We continue an analysis, started in [10], of some issues related to the incompressible Euler or Navier-Stokes (NS) equations on a d-dimensional torus T^d. More specifically, we consider the quadratic term in these equations; this arises…

We consider the motion of an incompressible viscous fluid on a compact Riemannian manifold $\sM$ with boundary. The motion on $\sM$ is modeled by the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations, and the fluid is subject to pure or partial slip…
Consider the unforced incompressible homogeneous Navier-Stokes equations on the $d$-torus $\mathbb{T}^d$ where $d\geq 4$ is the space dimension. It is shown that there exist nontrivial steady-state weak solutions $u\in L^{2}(\mathbb{T}^d)$.…
In this paper, we investigate the link between kinetic equations (including Boltzmann with or without cutoff assumption and Landau equations) and the incompressible Navier-Stokes equation. We work with strong solutions and we treat all the…
In this paper, we generalize the main results of [1] and [31] to Lorentz spaces, using a simple procedure. The main results are the following. Let $n\geq 3$ and let $u$ be a Leray-Hopf solution to the $n$-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations…
A few basic, intuitive, properties of the Navier-Stokes system of equations for incompressible fluid flows are discussed in this paper. We present a rephrased interpretation of the Navier-Stokes equation in a space having an arbitrary…
The Navier--Stokes (NS) equations describe fluid dynamics through a high-dimensional, nonlinear system of partial differential equations (PDEs). Despite their fundamental importance, their behavior in turbulent regimes remains incompletely…
