Onsager conjectured that weak solutions of the Euler equations for incompressible fluids in 3D conserve energy only if they have a certain minimal smoothness, (of order of 1/3 fractional derivatives) and that they dissipate energy if they are rougher. In this paper we prove that energy is conserved for velocities in the function space $B^{1/3}_{3,c(NN)}$. We show that this space is sharp in a natural sense. We phrase the energy spectrum in terms of the Littlewood-Paley decomposition and show that the energy flux is controlled by local interactions. This locality is shown to hold also for the helicity flux; moreover, every weak solution of the Euler equations that belongs to $B^{2/3}_{3,c(NN)}$ conserves helicity. In contrast, in two dimensions, the strong locality of the enstrophy holds only in the ultraviolet range.
The Onsagers conjecture has two parts: conservation of energy, if the exponent is larger than $1/3$ and the possibility of dissipative Euler solutions, if the exponent is less or equal than $1/3$. The paper proves half of the conjecture, the conservation part, in bounded domains.
Energy conservations are studied for inhomogeneous incompressible and compressible Euler equations with general pressure law in a torus or a bounded domain. We provide sufficient conditions for a weak solution to conserve the energy. By exploiting a suitable test function, the spatial regularity for the density is only required to be of order $2/3$ in the incompressible case, and of order $1/3$ in the compressible case. When the density is constant, we recover the existing results for classical incompressible Euler equation.
In this paper, we consider the energy conservation and regularity of the weak solution $u$ to the Navier-Stokes equations in the endpoint case. We first construct a divergence-free field $u(t,x)$ which satisfies $lim_{tto T}sqrt{T-t}||u(t)||_{BMO}<infty$ and $lim_{tto T}sqrt{T-t}||u(t)||_{L^infty}=infty$ to demonstrate that the Type II singularity is admissible in the endpoint case $uin L^{2,infty}(BMO)$. Secondly, we prove that if a suitable weak solution $u(t,x)$ satisfying $||u||_{L^{2,infty}([0,T];BMO(Omega))}<infty$ for arbitrary $Omegasubseteqmathbb{R}^3$ then the local energy equality is valid on $[0,T]timesOmega$. As a corollary, we also prove $||u||_{L^{2,infty}([0,T];BMO(mathbb{R}^3))}<infty$ implies the global energy equality on $[0,T]$. Thirdly, we show that as the solution $u$ approaches a finite blowup time $T$, the norm $||u(t)||_{BMO}$ must blow up at a rate faster than $frac{c}{sqrt{T-t}}$ with some absolute constant $c>0$. Furthermore, we prove that if $||u_3||_{L^{2,infty}([0,T];BMO(mathbb{R}^3))}=M<infty$ then there exists a small constant $c_M$ depended on $M$ such that if $||u_h||_{L^{2,infty}([0,T];BMO(mathbb{R}^3))}leq c_M$ then $u$ is regular on $(0,T]timesmathbb{R}^3$.
We consider the Euler equations in ${mathbb R}^3$ expressed in vorticity form. A classical question that goes back to Helmholtz is to describe the evolution of solutions with a high concentration around a curve. The work of Da Rios in 1906 states that such a curve must evolve by the so-called binormal curvature flow. Existence of true solutions concentrated near a given curve that evolves by this law is a long-standing open question that has only been answered for the special case of a circle travelling with constant speed along its axis, the thin vortex-rings. We provide what appears to be the first rigorous construction of {em helical filaments}, associated to a translating-rotating helix. The solution is defined at all times and does not change form with time. The result generalizes to multiple similar helical filaments travelling and rotating together.
In this paper, we study the energy equality for weak solutions to the non-resistive MHD equations with physical boundaries. Although the equations of magnetic field $b$ are of hyperbolic type, and the boundary effects are considered, we still prove the global energy equality provided that $u in L^{q}_{loc}left(0, T ; L^{p}(Omega)right) text { for any } frac{1}{q}+frac{1}{p} leq frac{1}{2}, text { with } p geq 4,text{ and } b in L^{r}_{loc}left(0, T ; L^{s}(Omega)right) text { for any } frac{1}{r}+frac{1}{s} leq frac{1}{2}, text { with } s geq 4 $. In particular, compared with the existed results, we do not require any boundary layer assumptions and additional conditions on the pressure $P$. Our result requires the regularity of boundary $partialOmega$ is only Lipschitz which is the minimum requirement to make the boundary condition $bcdot n$ sense. To approach our result, we first separate the mollification of weak solutions from the boundary effect by considering a non-standard local energy equality and transform the boundary effects into the estimates of the gradient of cut-off functions. Then, by establishing a sharp $L^2L^2$ estimate for pressure $P$, we use zero boundary conditions of $u$ to inhibit the boundary effect and obtain global energy equality by choosing suitable cut-off functions.
