The periodic $3D$ Navier-Stokes equations are analyzed in terms of dimensionless, scaled, $L^{2m}$-norms of vorticity $D_{m}$ ($1 \leq m < \infty$). The first in this hierarchy, $D_{1}$, is the global enstrophy. Three regimes naturally…

We investigate the global regularity problem for the three-dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations restricted to axisymmetric flows in a finite cylinder $D = \{(r,\theta,x_3): 0 \le r \le 1, 0 \le \theta < 2\pi, 0 \le x_3 \le…
Global regularity for the three-dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations remains unresolved partly because weak, mild, and strong formulations employ incompatible functional settings. The present study introduces a…
We study the global regularity, for all time and all initial data in $H^{1/2}$, of a recently introduced decimated version of the incompressible 3D Navier-Stokes (dNS) equations. The model is based on a projection of the dynamical evolution…
