Very weak solutions for the stationary Oseen and Navier–Stokes equations

Amrouche, Chérif; Rodríguez Bellido, María Ángeles

Abstract

We consider the stationary Oseen and Navier–Stokes equations in a bounded connected domain of class C1,1 of R3. Here we give a new and simpler proof of the existence of very weak solutions (u, q) ∈ Lp(Ω)×W−1,p(Ω) corresponding to boundary data in W−1/p,p(Γ ). These solutions are obtained without imposing smallness assumptions on the exterior forces. We also obtain regularity results in fractional Sobolev spaces.
