Let $v$ be a solution of the axially symmetric Navier-Stokes equation. We determine the structure of certain (possible) maximal singularity of $v$ in the following sense. Let $(x_0, t_0)$ be a point where the flow speed $Q_0 = |v(x_0,…

The Navier-Stokes equations in the primitive formulation for incompressible flow describe the evolution of velocity and pressure, without recourse to vorticity. We show that, beyond the finite Leray-Hopf regularity interval, every…
The problem of describing the behavior of the solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations in three space dimensions has always been borderline. From one side, due to the viscosity term, smooth data seem to produce solutions with an everlasting…
Current theoretical results for the three-dimensional Navier--Stokes equations only guarantee that solutions remain regular for all time when the initial enstrophy ($\|Du_0\|^2:=\int|{\rm curl} u_0|^2$) is sufficiently small,…
