Interpolation, extrapolation, Morrey spaces and local energy control for the Navier--Stokes equations

Abstract

Barker recently proved new weak-strong uniqueness results for the Navier-Stokes equations based on a criterion involving Besov spaces and a proof through interpolation between Besov-H{\"o}lder spaces and L 2. We improve slightly his results by considering Besov-Morrey spaces and interpolation between Besov-Morrey spaces and L 2 uloc. Let u 0 a divergence-free vector field on R 3. We shall consider weak solutions to the Cauchy initial value problem for the Navier-Stokes equations which satisfy energy estimates. The differential Navier-Stokes equations read as $\partial$ t u + u. $\nabla$ u = $\Delta$ u -- $\nabla$p div u = 0 u(0, .) = u 0 *
