Ergodicity of the 3D stochastic Navier-Stokes equations driven by mildly degenerate noise

Abstract

We prove that the any Markov solution to the 3D stochastic Navier-Stokes equations driven by a mildly degenerate noise (i.e.all but finitely many Fourier modes are forced) is uniquely ergodic. This follows by proving strong Feller regularity and irreducibility.
