On Ladyzhenskaya-Serrin condition sufficient for regular solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations. Periodic case

Abstract

We consider the Navier-Stokes equations in a bounded domain with periodic boundary conditions. Let $V=V(x,t)$ be the velocity of the fluid. The aim of this paper is to prove the bound $\|V(t)\|_{H^1}\le c$ for any $t\in\mathbb{R}_+$, where $c$ depends on data. The proof is divided into two steps. In the first step the Lam\'e system with a special version of the convective term is considered. The system has two viscosities. Assuming that the second viscosity (the bulk one) is sufficiently large we are able to prove the existence of global regular solutions to this system. The proof is divided into two steps. First the long time existence in interval $(0,T)$ is proved, where $T$ is proportional to the bulk viscosity. Having the bulk viscosity large we are able to show that data at time $T$ are sufficiently small. Then by the small data arguments a global existence follows. In this paper we are restricted to derive appropriate estimates only. To prove the existence we should use the method of successive approximations and the continuation argument. Let $v$ be a solution to it. In the second step we consider a problem for $u=v-V$. Assuming that $\|u\|_{H^1}$ at $t=0$ is sufficiently small we show that $\|u(t)\|_{H^1}$ is also sufficiently small for any $t\in\mathbb{R}_+$. Estimates for $v$ and $u$ in $H^1$ imply estimate for $\|V(t)\|_{H^1}$ for any $t\in\mathbb{R}_+$.

Average Chord Lengths in a Triangle

Let $P$ be a point inside a triangle $T$. We consider the average length of the chords of $T$ through $P$, where the direction of the chord is chosen uniformly. An elementary formula is obtained in terms of the distances from $P$ to the sides and vertices of the triangle. Several classical triangle centers give especially simple specializations. For example, if $I$ is the incenter, then \[ M_T(I)=\frac{2r}{\pi} \log\left(\cot\frac A4\cot\frac B4\cot\frac C4\right). \] Our main result is the sharp inequality \[ M_T(P)\le \frac{p}{\pi\sqrt3}\log(2+\sqrt3), \] valid simultaneously for every triangle of perimeter $p$ and every interior point $P$. Thus, among all such pairs $(T,P)$, the largest possible average chord length occurs only when $T$ is equilateral and $P$ is its center. The proof is an elementary symmetrization argument. We close with brief remarks relating the problem to the radial center of a convex body, the electrostatic potential center of a triangle, and dual quermassintegrals.

A Proof of Liu's Conjecture on the Fundamental Triangle Inequality

Let $a,b,c$ be the side lengths of a triangle, and let $R$ and $r$ denote its circumradius and inradius, respectively. We prove a conjecture of Liu stating that \[\sum_{\mathrm{cyc}} \left(\frac{a(b+c-a)}{bc}\right)^k \geq 2+\left(\frac{2r}{R}\right)^k,~~k>1, \] with the reverse inequality for $0<k<1$. The proof reduces the problem to three positive variables with fixed sum and product. We also determine the equality cases.
