Exponent bounds for a convolution inequality in Euclidean space with applications to the Navier-Stokes equations

The convolution inequality $h*h(ξ) \leq B |ξ|^θh(ξ)$ defined on $\Rn$ arises from a probabilistic representation of solutions of the $n$-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations, $n \geq 2$. Using a chaining argument, we establish the nonexistence of strictly positive fully supported solutions of this inequality if $θ\geq n/2$, in all dimensions $n \geq 1$. We use this result to describe a chain of continuous embeddings from spaces associated with probabilistic solutions to the spaces $BMO^{-1}$ and $BMO_T^{-1}$ associated with the Koch-Tataru solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations.

Valuations and Metrics on Partially Ordered Sets

We extend the definitions of upper and lower valuations on partially ordered sets, and consider the metrics they induce, in particular the metrics available (or not) based on the logarithms of such valuations. Motivating applications in computational linguistics and computational biology are indicated.
