Global dissipative solutions of the 3D Naiver-Stokes and MHD equations
Abstract
For any divergence free initial data in $H^\frac12$, we prove the existence of infinitely many dissipative solutions to both the 3D Navier-Stokes and MHD equations, whose energy profiles are continuous and decreasing on $[0,\infty)$. If the initial data is only $L^2$, our construction yields infinitely many solutions with continuous energy, but not necessarily decreasing. Our theorem does not hold in the case of zero viscosity as this would violate the weak-strong uniqueness principle due to Lions. This was achieved by designing a convex integration scheme that takes advantage of the dissipative term.
