We study the Cauchy problem for the 3D incompressible hyperdissipative Navier-Stokes equations and consider the well-posedness and ill-posedness. We prove that if p > 6 8−α and q 1, the system is locally well-posed for large initial data as well as globally wellposed for small initial data. Also, we obtain the same result for p = 6 8−α and q ∈ [ 6 8−α , 2]. More importantly, we show that the system is ill-posed in the sense of norm inflation for p = 6 8−α and q > 2. The proof relies heavily on particular structure of initial data u 0 that we construct, which makes the first iteration of solution inflate. Specifically, the special structure of u 0 transforms an infinite sum into a finite sum in 'remainder term', which permits us to control the remainder.
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.
