On global attractors of the 3D Navier-Stokes equations
نویسنده
چکیده
In view of the possibility that the 3D Navier-Stokes equations (NSE) might not always have regular solutions, we introduce an abstract framework for studying the asymptotic behavior of multi-valued dissipative evolutionary systems with respect to two topologies—weak and strong. Each such system possesses a global attractor in the weak topology, but not necessarily in the strong. In case the latter exists and is weakly closed, it coincides with the weak global attractor. We give a sufficient condition for the existence of the strong global attractor, which is verified for the 3D NSE when all solutions on the weak global attractor are strongly continuous. We also introduce and study a two-parameter family of models for the Navier-Stokes equations, with similar properties and open problems. These models always possess weak global attractors, but on some of them every solution blows up (in a norm stronger than the standard energy one) in finite time.

Attractors and neo-attractors for 3D stochastic Navier-Stokes equations
In [14] nonstandard analysis was used to construct a (standard) global attractor for the 3D stochastic Navier–Stokes equations with general multiplicative noise, living on a Loeb space, using Sell’s approach [26]. The attractor had somewhat ad hoc attracting and compactness properties. We strengthen this result by showing that the attractor has stronger properties making it a neo-attractor – a ...
متن کاملGlobal Attractors and Determining Modes for the 3d Navier-stokes-voight Equations
We investigate the long-term dynamics of the three-dimensional NavierStokes-Voight model of viscoelastic incompressible fluid. Specifically, we derive upper bounds for the number of determining modes for the 3D Navier-Stokes-Voight equations and for the dimension of a global attractor of a semigroup generated by these equations. Viewed from the numerical analysis point of view we consider the N...
متن کاملSmooth Attractors for the Brinkman-forchheimer Equations with Fast Growing Nonlinearities
We prove the existence of regular dissipative solutions and global attractors for the 3D Brinkmann-Forchheimer equations with the nonlinearity of an arbitrary polynomial growth rate. In order to obtain this result, we prove the maximal regularity estimate for the corresponding semi-linear stationary Stokes problem using some modification of the nonlinear localization technique. The applications...
متن کاملAttractors for the Stochastic 3d Navier-stokes Equations
In a 1997 paper, Ball defined a generalised semiflow as a means to consider the solutions of equations without (or not known to possess) the property of uniqueness. In particular he used this to show that the 3d Navier-Stokes equations have a global attractor provided that all weak solutions are continuous from (0,∞) into L2. In this paper we adapt his framework to treat stochastic equations: w...
