Non-uniqueness for the Euler equations up to Onsager's critical exponent

Abstract

In this paper we deal with the Cauchy problem for the incompressible Euler equations in the three-dimensional periodic setting. We prove non-uniqueness for an $L^2$-dense set of H\"older continuous initial data in the class of H\"older continuous admissible weak solutions for all exponents below the Onsager-critical $1/3$. This improves previous results on non-uniqueness obtained by Daneri in arXiv:1302.0988 and by Daneri and Szekelyhidi Jr. in arXiv:1603.09714 and generalizes the result obtained by Buckmaster, De Lellis, Szekelyhidi Jr. and Vicol in arXiv:1701.08678.
