Abstract. We study locally self-similar solutions of the three dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. The locally self-similar solutions we consider here are different from the global self-similar solutions. The self-similar scaling is only valid in an inner core region that shrinks to a point dynamically as the time, t, approaches a possible singularity time, T . The solution outside the inner core region is assumed to be regular, but it does not satisfy selfsimilar scaling. Under the assumption that the dynamically rescaled velocity profile converges to a limiting profile as t → T in L p for some p ∈ (3, ∞), we prove that such a locally self-similar blow-up is not possible. We also obtain a simple but useful non-blowup criterion for the 3D Euler equations.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
