Le Ω ⊂IRd(d= 2 o 3) a bounded and egula enough domain illed by he luid, and [0, T] he ime in e al. We deno e Q= (0, T)×Ω and Σ = (0, T)×∂Ω. In he case whe e he luid is subjec o he ac ion o a body o ce , he Na ie -S okes equa ions can be w i en as ollows ∂u ∂ + (u· ∇)u−ν∆u+∇p= ,di u= 0 ,(1) whe e u=u(x, ) is he eloci y ield e alua ed a he poin x∈Ω and a ime ∈[0, T], p=p(x, ) is he p essu e ield and ν > 0 is he coe icien o kinema ical iscosi y (which is aken cons an ). This sys em can be comple ed wi h se e al bounda y condi ions. Fo simplici y, we ix he ollowing non-slip bounda y condi ions: u( , x) = 0,x∈∂Ω, > 0 (2) Finally, supplemen a y condi ions in ime mus be conside ed. The mo e classical is he ini ial condi ion: u(0,x) = u0(x),x∈Ω (3) O he possibili y is o change his ini ial condi ion by he ollowing ime-pe iodic condi ion: u(0,x) = u(T, x),x∈Ω.(4) Ma hema ical p ope ies o sys em (1) ha e been deeply in es iga ed o e he yea s and a e s ill he objec o p o ound esea ches. We in oduce some space unc ions. Le V he ec o ial space o med by all ields ∈C∞ 0(Ω)dsa is ying ∇ · = 0. We conside he Hilbe spaces H Rep oduc i i y and ime pe iodici y o incomp essible luids 103 ( espec i ely V) as he closu e o Vin L2( espec i ely H1). Fu he mo e, one has H={u∈L2;∇ · u= 0,u·n= 0 on ∂Ω}, V={u∈H1;∇ · u= 0,u=0on ∂Ω} We deno e L2 0(Ω) = ½p∈L2(Ω) : ZΩ p dx = 0¾. 2.1 Main classical esul s o he ini ial-bounda y p oblem De ini ion 1 Gi en u0∈Hand ∈L2(0, T;H−1(Ω)), i will said ha uis a weak solu ion o he p oblem (1),(2), (3) in (0, T ), i u∈L2(0, T;V)∩L∞(0, T;H), and e i ies (3) and he a ia ional o mula ion ZT 0ZΩn−u( ) ′( ) + ∇u( ) : ∇u( )−(u( )· ∇) ( )u( )− ( ) ( )odxd = 0, o all ∈C1([0, T ]; H)∩C([0, T ]; V), wi h compac suppo con ained in (0, T). In addi ion, i u0∈Vand ∈L2(0, T;L2(Ω)) any weak solu ion will be a s ong solu ion i u∈L2(0, T;H2∩V)∩L∞(0, T;V),u ∈L2(0, T ;H), p ∈L2(0, T;H1∩L2 0(Ω)) and e i ies he sys em (1) poin wise a.e. in (0, T)×Ω. Rema k 1 The p e ious de ini ion can be ex end o he case o inal ime T=∞changing he egula i y L2(0, T)by L2 loc(0,+∞). The ollowing esul s hold. Theo em 1 [22] Fo any u0∈Hand ∈L2(0, T;H−1(Ω)), he p oblem (1)- (2) has (a leas ) a weak solu ion. I Ω⊂IR2, one has uniqueness o weak solu ions. Theo em 2 [22] Fo any u0∈Vand ∈L∞(0,∞;L2(Ω)), he p oblem (1)- (2) has a unique s ong solu ion (u, p)local in ime, de ined in (0, T⋆)wi h T⋆>0small enough. In ac , i a solu ion has he s ong egula i y, i coincides wi h any weak solu ion associa ed wi h he same da a ( his p ope y is called weak/s ong uniqueness). Mo eo e , his s ong solu ion is global in ime, de ined in he whole ime in e al (0,∞)i ei he Ω⊂IR2o Ω⊂IR3and da a (u0, )a e small enough in hei espec i e spaces V×L∞(0,∞;L2(Ω)). 104 B. Climen -Ezque a, F. Guill´en-Gonz´alez y M. Rojas-Meda 2.2 On he ime-pe iodic weak solu ions Theo em 3 [8] Fo any ∈L2(0, T;H−1(Ω)), he e exis s a weak solu ion o (1)-(2) and (4), (i.e. he weak solu ion uhas he so-called ep oduc i e p ope y: u(0, x) = u(T, x)). No ice ha he ime pe iodic ex ension, e u, o any weak ep oduc i e solu ion u o he whole ime in e al (0,+∞) is a pe iodic weak solu ion o (1)-(2) co esponding o he da a, e , de ined as he ime pe iodic ex ension o . Main ideas o he p oo o Theo em 3 Le uk he unique app oxima e solu ion o he Gale kin ini ial-bounda y p oblem o Na ie -S okes in he ini e-dimensional subspace Vk, spanned by he i s kelemen s o he “spec al” basis o V(o hogonal in Vand o hono mal in H), associa ed o a ini ial disc e e da a uk 0∈Vk. Since V֒→H, he e exis s a Poinca ´e cons an c1>0 such ha c1kukk2 L2≤ k∇ukk2 L2, hus, om ene gy inequali y, we ha e d d kukk2 L2+c1kukk2 L2≤Ck k2 H−1,(5) o equi alen ly d d (ec1 kukk2 L2)≤C ec1 k k2 H−1. In eg a ing om 0 o T, we ha e ec1Tkuk(T)k2 L2≤ kuk(0)k2 L2+CZT 0 ec1 k ( )k2 H−1d . (6) Now, we de ine he ope a o Lk: [0, T]→Rkas ollows Lk( ) = (ck 1( ),...,ck k( )) whe e ck i( ), i = 1,...,k, a e he coe icien s o he expansion o uk( ) in Vk. No e ha kLk( )kRk=kukkL2, because we ha e choose he (o hono mal in L2) spec al basis in V. We de ine he ope a o Φk:Rk→Rkas ollows: Gi en Lk 0∈Rk, we de ine Φk(Lk 0) = Lk(T), whe e Lk( ) a e he coe icien s o he Gale kin solu ion wi h ini ial alue wi h coe icien s Lk 0. I is easy o see ha Φkis con inuous and we wan o p o e ha Φkhas a ixed poin . Fo his, hanks o he Le ay-Schaude Theo em, i su ices o show ha o all λ∈[0,1], he possible solu ions o he equa ion Lk 0(λ) = λΦk(Lk 0(λ)),(7) Rep oduc i i y and ime pe iodici y o incomp essible luids 105 a e bounded independen ly o λ. Since Lk 0(0) = 0, i su ices o conside λ∈(0,1]. In his case, (7) is equi alen o Φk(Lk 0(λ)) = 1 λLk 0(λ). Mo eo e , by he de ini ion o Φkand (6), one ob ains ec1T|| 1 λLk 0(λ)||2 Rk≤ kLk 0(λ)k2 Rk+cZT 0 ec1Tk ( )k2 H−1d , which implies kLk 0(λ)k2 Rk≤cRT 0ec1Tk ( )k2 H−1d ec1T−1=M, o each λ∈(0,1]. This bound is independen o λ∈[0,1] and k. Consequen ly, Le ay-Shaude Theo em implies he exis ence o a leas one ixed poin o Φk, ha is he exis ence o ep oduc i e Gale kin solu ion. Thus, since p e ious es ima es a e independen o k, one has he same es ima es o hese ep oduc i e Gale kin solu ions. Finally, he con e gence o a subsequence o a ep oduc i e solu ion o (1),(2), (4) hold. 2.3 Rela ion be ween weak pe iodic solu ions and global solu ions Assume : [0,+∞)→H−1(Ω) and T- ime pe iodic. Na ie -S okes 2D One has (see Theo em 1) uniqueness o weak solu ion o he ini ial-bounda y p oblem (associa ed o any ini ial da a u0). Consequen ly, gi en a ep oduc i e solu ion uassocia ed o u(0) = u(T) := u0, hen uis he (unique) solu ion o he ini ial-bounda y p oblem associa ed o he ini ial da a u0, which is de ined o all ime ∈(0,∞). Mo eo e , his solu ion is T-pe iodic, because in (T, 2T) mus be equal o he ep oduc i e solu ion de ined as ¯ u( ) = u( −T) (which e i ies u(T) = u(2T) = u0) and so on. Finally, using egula i y o solu ion u o s ic ly posi i e imes (see [5]), i is easy o p o e ha e e y pe iodic solu ion is egula . Na ie -S okes 3D Since uniqueness o weak solu ion is no known, i is possible ha he ep oduc i e solu ion uand he global weak solu ion ˜ uassocia ed o he ini ial da a u0:= u(0) = u(T) a e di e en in (0, T), al hough hey coincide locally in ime, nea o he ini ial ime = 0. 2.4 Open p oblems Na ie -S okes wi h la ge Reynolds numbe and a eac ion e m adding ene gy P e ious a gumen s o he p oo o ep oduc i e solu ions a e based on (exponen ial) dec easing o ene gy ( hanks o dissipa i e e ms).

Fo ins ance, we conside he ollowing Na ie -S okes sys em wi h la ge Reynolds numbe and a eac ion e m adding ene gy: ∂ u−ε∆u−u+∇p= ,∇ · u= 0, u(0) = u(T),u|Σ= 0.(8) The ene gy inequali y is ∂ kuk2 L2+εk∇uk2 L2≤C(k k2 H−1+kuk2 L2). Assuming εsmall enough such ha kuk2 L26< εk∇uk2 L2, he s ic ly dec easing in ime o kuk2 L2is no clea . Consequen ly, he exis ence o ime-pe iodic weak solu ions o (8) emains as an open p oblem. Ex e io domains Assume Ω is an ex e io domain whe e he Poinca ´e inequali y is no ue. Then, o show he exis ence o ep oduc i e solu ions one could use he “embedding domain echnique” oge he wi h he Gale kin Me hod, ob aining ep oduc i e solu ions in a sequence o (bounded) unca ed domains, see o ins ance [6, 18, 17]. Howe e , since Poinca ´e imbedding is no applicable, i is no clea he con oll o he pass o he limi om unca ed domains o he whole domain. Some pa ial esul s a e known. Fo example, he exis ence o s ong pe iodic solu ions o he Na ie -S okes equa ions in he ollowing unbounded domains, ei he Ω is he whole space Rno he hal -space Rn +has been in es iga ed by Kozono and Nakao [9] and Taniuchi [21] using he semig oup app oach. By using po en ial heo y, Ma emon i [15] p o ed he exis ence o a unique ime pe iodic solu ion on he whole space R3 o small ex e nal o ce. The p oblem, in he hal -space R3 +,was conside ed in [16]. Kozono and Nakao [9], making use o Lp−L es ima es o he semig oup gene a ed by he S okes ope a o , cons uc ed ime-pe iodic solu ions o small ime-pe iodic o ces and he s abili y o hese solu ions was conside ed in [21]. Yamazaki [23] analyzed he same p oblem o [9] in Mo ey spaces. 3 Some a ian s o Na ie -S okes equa ions We can apply he a gumen o ind ep oduc i e solu ions done o Na ie -S okes in he p eceden Sec ion, o some a ian s: 3.1 Boussinesq equa ions The Boussinesq sys em o hyd odynamics equa ions (see Joseph [7]) a ise om ze o o de app oxima ion o he coupling be ween he Na ie -S okes equa ion and he he modynamic equa ion.

This sys em is comple ed wi h he bounda y condi ions ( o ins ance) u|Σ= 0, θ|Σ= 0 and he ime-pe iodic condi ions u(0) = u(T), θ(0) = θ(T) in Ω. By aking uand θas es unc ion in he u-sys em and θ-equa ion o (9) espec i ely, adding he esul ing equali ies conside ing an adequa e balance (in o de o elimina e he e m ha con ains g), we ob ain d d kuk2 L2+βd d kθk2 L2+νk∇uk2 L2+βχk∇θk2 L2≤ k k2 H−1,(10) whe e βis a big enough numbe depending on αand kgkL∞.

In pa icula , ∂ (c−c)−∆(c−c) + (u· ∇)(c−c) = 0 in Q. Mul iplying by (c−c)+and in eg a ing in Ω (no ice ha (c−c)+= 0 on Σ), one has d d ZΩ |(c−c)+|2+ZΩ |∇(c−c)+|2≤0.
