Two component regularity for the Navier-Stokes equations

Jishan Fan, Hongjun Gao

Abstract:
We consider the regularity of weak solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations in $\mathbb{R}^3$. Let $u:=(u_1,u_2,u_3)$ be a weak solution and $\widetilde{u}:=(u_1,u_2,0)$. We prove that $u$ is strong solution if $\nabla\widetilde{u}$ satisfy Serrin's type criterion.
