On a regularity criterion in terms of the gradient of pressure for the Navier-Stokes equations in $\Bbb R^N$.
(English)
[J] Z. Angew. Math. Phys. 57, No. 3, 384-392 (2006). ISSN 0044-2275; ISSN 1420-9039/e

The Cauchy problem for the Navier-Stokes equations is considered in $\Bbb R^n\times(0,T)$, $n=3,4$ \aligned &\frac{\partial v}{\partial t}+(v\cdot\nabla)v-\Delta v+\nabla p=0,\quad\text{div}\,v=0 \quad \text{in}\quad \Bbb R^n\times(0,T)\\ &v(x,0)=v_0(x),\quad x\in \Bbb R^n\endaligned Let $$v_0\in L_2(\Bbb R^n)\bigcap L_q(\Bbb R^n)\quad\text{for}\ q\geq n,\quad\text{div}\,v_0=0.$$ It is proved if $v$ is a Leray-Hopf weak solution to the problem and $$\nabla p\in L_{\alpha}\left(0,T;L_{\gamma}(\Bbb R^n)\right) \quad\text{with}\ \frac{2}{\alpha}+\frac{n}{\gamma}\leq 3,\ \frac{2}{3}<\alpha<\infty,\ \frac{n}{3}<\gamma<\infty$$ then $v$ is regular and unique. A priori estimates for the smooth solution are the base of the proof.
