Keywords:
axisymmetric flow; Navier-Stokes equations; regularity of systems of PDE’s
Summary:
We study axisymmetric solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations in the whole three-dimensional space. We find conditions on the radial and angular components of the velocity field which are sufficient for proving the regularity of weak solutions.
