On the decay of higher-order norms of the solutions of Navier–Stokes equations
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 14 November 2011
Extract
We show that an energy decay ∥u(t)∥2 = O(t−µ) for solutions of the Navier–Stokes equations on ℝn, n ≦ 5, implies a decay of the higher order norms, e.g. ∥Dα u(t)∥2 = O(t−µ −|α|/2) and ∥u(t)|∞ = O(t−µ −n/4).
