On conditional uniqueness of solutions to stochastic Navier-Stokes Equations
István Gyöngy, Nicolai V. Krylov
TL;DR
This work extends conditional uniqueness results for the deterministic Navier–Stokes equations to the stochastic setting in $\mathbb{R}^d$ with $d\ge3$. By introducing admissible random solutions that decompose as $u = u^M + u^B$ with a Morrey-component $u^M\in E_{r,1}$ and a bounded-in-space component $u^B\in L_2([0,T],L_\infty)$, the authors prove the existence of a time-continuous $\mathcal{H}$-valued modification (Theorem 1) and establish conditional uniqueness under a small Morrey-norm bound $\hat{u}<\delta/N$ (Theorem 2). A corollary recovers the Ladyzhenskaya–Prodi–Serrin uniqueness criterion in this stochastic admissible framework, and Theorem 3 provides conditional regularity results under additional smoothness assumptions. The results generalize Prodi–Serrin uniqueness to stochastic Navier–Stokes and offer a broader functional-analytic setting via Morrey-admissible functions, with potential implications for well-posedness and regularity in stochastic fluid dynamics.
Abstract
This paper is a continuation of [26]. Here theorems on conditional uniqueness and regularity for solutions to stochastic Navier-Stokes equations in $\mathbb R^d$ are presented.
