Abstract:
The quest of blowup solutions to the NSE remains a challenging topic. We will discuss a recent construction that illustrates a blowup phenomenon unexplored previously for the NSE. In particular, the constructed solutions start from smooth initial data and exhibit an instantaneous blowup saturating Type-I blowup rate at a finite time. Moreover, there are infinitely many such blowup solutions; and the non-uniqueness occurs in borderline spaces of known criteria which ensure uniqueness. This is joint work with Alexey Cheskidov and Stan Palasek.
