3 Motivation The question of whether the 3D incompressible Navier-Stokes equations can develop a finite time singularity from smooth initial data is one of the seven Clay Millennium Problems. u t + (u )u = p + ν u, u = 0, (1) with initial condition u(x, 0) = u 0. Define vorticity ω = u, then ω is governed by ω t + (u )ω = u ω + ν ω. (2) Note that u is related to ω by a Riesz operator K of degree zero: u = K(ω), and we have ω L p u L p C ω L p for 1 < p <. Thus the vortex stretching term u ω is formally of the order ω 2. So far, most regularity analysis uses energy estimates and treats the nonlinear terms as a small perturbation to the diffusion term. The global regularity can be obtained only for small data.
4 A brief review Global existence for small data (Leray, Ladyzhenskaya, Kato, etc). If u 0 L p (p 3) or u 0 L 2 u 0 L 2 is small, then the 3D Navier-Stokes equations have a globally smooth solution. Non-blowup criteria due to G. Prodi 59, J. Serrin 63. A weak solution u of the 3D Navier-Stokes equations is smooth on [0, T ] R 3 provided that u L q t Lp x ([0,T ] R 3 ) < for some p, q satisfying 3 p + 2 q 1 with 3 < p and 2 q <. The critical case of p = 3, q = was proved by L. Escauriaza, G. Seregin, and V. Sverak in Partial regularity theory (Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg 82, F. Lin 98) For any suitable weak solution of the 3D Navier-Stokes equations on an open set in space-time, the one-dimensional Hausdorff measure of the associated singular set is zero.
5 Review continud (Beale-Kato-Majda criterion, 1984) u ceases to be classical at T if and only if T 0 ω (t) dt =. Geometry regularity of direction field of ω: Constantin, Fefferman and Majda (1996). Let ω = ω ξ. The solution of 3D Euler is smooth solution up to T if (1) u L (Ω t) is bounded; and (2) t 0 ξ 2 L (Ω τ ) dτ is uniformly bounded for all t < T. Localized non-blow-up criteria, Deng-Hou-Yu, Denote by L(t) the arclength of a vortex line segment L t around the maximum vorticity. If (i) max Lt ( u ξ + u n ) C U (T t) A with A < 1, (ii) C L (T t) B L(t) C 0 / max Lt ( κ, ξ ) with B < 1 A, then the 3D Euler remains smooth up to T.
6 The role of convection and 3D Euler Equations Due to the incompressibility condition, the convection term does not contribute to the energy norm of velocity or the L p -norm of ω. ω t + (u )ω = u ω + ν ω. The convection term and the vortex stretching term can be reformulated as a commutator: ω t + (u )ω (ω )u = ν ω. When we consider the two terms together, we preserve the Lagrangian structure of the solution of the 3D Euler equations: ω(x (α, t), t) = X α (α, t)ω 0(α), det( X (α, t)) 1 α where X (α, t) is the flow map: X t = u(x, t), X (α, 0) = α. Convection tends to severely deform and flatten the support of maximum vorticity. Such deformation tends to weaken the nonlinearity of vortex stretching dynamicallty.
7 Numerical evidence of Euler singularity In 1993 (and 2005), R. Kerr [Phys. Fluids] presented numerical evidence of 3D Euler singularity for two anti-parallel vortex tubes: Pseudo-spectral in x and y, Chebyshev in z direction; Best resolution: ; Predicted singularity time T = 18.7, but his numerical solutions became under-resolved after T 1 = 17. ω L (T t) 1 ; u L (T t) 1/2 ; Anisotropic scaling: (T t) T t T t; Vortex lines: relatively straight, ξ (T t) 1/2 ; It is important to emphasize that T T 1 = 1.7 is not asymptotically small. Thus the extrapolated blow-up rate of ω L (T t) 1 is not valid asymptotically from T 1 to T. This makes the claim T T 1 ω dt = questionable. Kerr s computation falls into the critical case of Deng-Hou-Yu s non-blowup criterion with A = B = 1/2.

15 The Effect of Convection Consider the 3D axi-symmetric incompressible Navier-Stokes equations ( ut θ + u r ur θ + u z uz θ = ν 2 1 ) r 2 u θ 1 r ur u θ, (3) ( ωt θ + u r ωr θ + u z ωz θ = ν 2 1 ) r 2 ω θ + 1 ( (u θ ) 2) r + 1 z r ur ω θ, (4) ( 2 1 r 2 ) ψ θ = ω θ, (5) where u θ, ω θ and ψ θ are the angular components of the velocity, vorticity and stream function respectively, and u r = (ψ θ ) z u z = 1 r (rψθ ) r. Note that equations (??)-(??) completely determine the evolution of the 3D axisymmetric Navier-Stokes equations.
16 Reformulation of axisymmetric Navier-Stokes equations In [CPAM 08], Hou and Li introduced the following new variables: u 1 = u θ /r, ω 1 = ω θ /r, ψ 1 = ψ θ /r, (6) and derived the following equivalent system that governs the dynamics of u 1, ω 1 and ψ 1 as follows: t u 1 + u r r u 1 + u z z u 1 = ν ( r r ) r + z 2 u1 + 2u 1 ψ 1z, ) z, t ω 1 + u r r ω 1 + u z z ω 1 = ν ( r r ) r + z 2 ω1 + ( u1 2 ( r r ) r + z 2 ψ1 = ω 1, where u r = rψ 1z, u z = 2ψ 1 + rψ 1r. Liu and Wang [SINUM07] showed that if u is a smooth velocity field, then u θ, ω θ and ψ θ must satisfy: u θ r=0 = ω θ r=0 = ψ θ r=0 = 0. Thus u 1, ψ 1 and ω 1 are well defiend. (7)
17 Study of dynamic stability through an exact 1D model In [Hou-Li, CPAM, 61 (2008), no. 5, ], we derived an exact 1D model along the z-axis for the Navier-Stokes equations: (u 1 ) t + 2ψ 1 (u 1 ) z = ν(u 1 ) zz + 2 (ψ 1 ) z u 1, (8) (ω 1 ) t + 2ψ 1 (ω 1 ) z = ν(ω 1 ) zz + ( u1 2 ) z, (9) (ψ 1 ) zz = ω 1. (10) Let ũ = u 1, ṽ = (ψ 1 ) z, and ψ = ψ 1. The above system becomes (ũ) t + 2 ψ(ũ) z = ν(ũ) zz 2ṽũ, (11) (ṽ) t + 2 ψ(ṽ) z = ν(ṽ) zz + (ũ) 2 (ṽ) 2 + c(t), (12) where ṽ = ( ψ) z, ṽ z = ω, and c(t) is an integration constant to enforce the mean of ṽ equal to zero.
18 The 1D model is exact! A surprising result is that the above 1D model is exact. Theorem 1. Let u 1, ψ 1 and ω 1 be the solution of the 1D model (??)-(??) and define u θ (r, z, t) = ru 1 (z, t), ω θ (r, z, t) = rω 1 (z, t), ψ θ (r, z, t) = rψ 1 (z, t). Then (u θ (r, z, t), ω θ (r, z, t), ψ θ (r, z, t)) is an exact solution of the 3D Navier-Stokes equations. Theorem 1 tells us that the 1D model (??)-(??) preserves some essential nonlinear structure of the 3D axisymmetric Navier-Stokes equations.
19 Global Well-Posedness of the full 1D Model Theorem 2. Assume that ũ(z, 0) and ṽ(z, 0) are in C m [0, 1] with m 1 and periodic with period 1. Then the solution (ũ, ṽ) of the 1D model will be in C m [0, 1] for all times and for ν 0. Proof. The key is to obtain a priori pointwise estimate for the Lyapunov function ũ 2 z + ṽ 2 z. Differentiating the ũ and ṽ-equations w.r.t z, we get (ũ z ) t + 2 ψ(ũ z ) z 2ṽũ z = 2ṽũ z 2ũṽ z + ν(ũ z ) zz, (ṽ z ) t + 2 ψ(ṽ z ) z 2ṽṽ z = 2ũũ z 2ṽṽ z + ν(ṽ z ) zz. Surprisingly, nonlinear terms cancel each other and we obtain (ũ2 z + ṽz 2 ) + 2 ψ ( ũ 2 t z + ṽz 2 ) = ν ( ũ 2 z z + ṽz 2 ) 2ν [ (ũ zz zz ) 2 + (ṽ zz ) 2]. Thus, (ũ 2 z + ṽ 2 z ) satisfies a maximum principle for all ν 0: ũ 2 z + ṽ 2 z L (ũ 0 ) 2 z + (ṽ 0 ) 2 z L.
20 Construction of a family of globally smooth solutions Theorem 3. Let φ(r) be a smooth cut-off function and u 1, ω 1 and ψ 1 be the solution of the 1D model. Define u θ (r, z, t) = ru 1 (z, t)φ(r) + ũ(r, z, t), ω θ (r, z, t) = rω 1 (z, t)φ(r) + ω(r, z, t), ψ θ (r, z, t) = rψ 1 (z, t)φ(r) + ψ(r, z, t). Then there exists a family of globally smooth functioons ũ, ω and ψ such that u θ, ω θ and ψ θ are globally smooth solutions of the 3D Navier-Stokes equations with finite energy.
21 A New 3D Model for NSE, [Hou-Lei, CPAM, 09] Recall the reformulated 3D Navier-Stokes equations: t u 1 + u r r u 1 + u z z u 1 = ν ( r r ) r + z 2 u1 + 2u 1 ψ 1z, t ω 1 + u r r ω 1 + u z z ω 1 = ν ( r r ) r + z 2 ω1 + ( ) u1 2 z, ( r r ) r + z 2 ψ1 = ω 1, (13) where u r = rψ 1z, u z = 2ψ 1 + rψ 1r. Our 3D model is derived by simply dropping the convective term from (??): t u 1 = ν ( r r ) r + z 2 u1 + 2u 1 ψ 1z, t ω 1 = ν ( r r ) r + z 2 ω1 + (u1 2) z, ( (14) r r ) r + z 2 ψ1 = ω 1. Note that (??) is already a closed system, and u 1 = u θ /r characterizes the axial vorticity near r = 0.
22 Properties of the 3D Model [Hou-Lei, CPAM, 09] This 3D model shares many important properties with the axisymmetric Navier-Stokes equations. First of all, one can define an incompressible velocity field in the model equations (??). u(t, x) = u r (t, r, z)e r + u θ (t, r, z)e θ + u z (t, r, z)e z, (15) u θ = ru 1, u r = rψ 1z, u z = 2ψ 1 + rψ 1r, (16) where x = (x 1, x 2, z), r = x1 2 + x 2 2. It is easy to check that u = r u r + z u z + ur r = 0, (17) which is the same as the Navier-Stokes equations.
23 Properties of the 3D Model continued Our model enjoys the following properties ([Hou-Lei, CPAM-09]): Theorem 4. Energy identity. The smooth solution of (??) satisfies 1 d ( u Dψ 1 2) ( Du1 r 3 drdz + ν D 2 ψ 1 2) r 3 drdz = 0, 2 dt which has been proved to be equivalent to that of the Navier-Stokes equations. Here D is the first order derivative operator defined in R 5. Theorem 5. A non-blowup criterion of Beale-Kato-Majda type. A smooth solution (u 1, ω 1, ψ 1 ) of the model (??) for 0 t < T blows up at time t = T if and only if T where u is defined in (??)-(??). 0 u BMO(R 3 )dt =,
24 Properties of the 3D Model continued Theorem 6. A non-blowup criterion of Prodi-Serrin type. A weak solution (u 1, ω 1, ψ 1 ) of the model (??) is smooth on [0, T ] R 3 provided that u θ L q t Lp x ([0,T ] R 3 ) < (18) for some p, q satisfying 3 p + 2 q 1 with 3 < p and 2 q <. Theorem 7. An analog of Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg partial regularity result [Hou-Lei, CMP-09]. For any suitable weak solution of the 3D model equations (??) on an open set in space-time, the one-dimensional Hausdorff measure of the associated singular set is zero.
25 Numerical evidence for a potential finite time singularity Innitial condition we consider in our numerical computations is given by u 1 (z, r, 0) = (1 + sin(4πz))(r 2 1) 20 (r 2 1.2) 30, 0 r 1, ψ 1 (z, r, 0) = 0, ω 1 (z, r, 0) = 0. A second order finite difference discretization is used in space, and the classical fourth order Runge-Kutta method is used to discretize in time. We use the following coordinate transformation along the r-direction to achieve the adaptivity: r = f (α) α 0.9 sin(πα)/π. We use an effective resolution up to for the 3D problem.

36 Proof of finite time blow-up of the 3D model Theorem 8. [Hou-Shi-Wang, 09]. Consider the 3D inviscid model { u t = 2uψ z, ω t = (u 2 ) z, ( ) x 2 + y 2 + z 2 (19) ψ = ω, 0 x, y, z 1, with boundary condition ψ = 0 at x = 0, 1, y = 0, 1, z = 1, and (α ψ z + ψ) z=0 = 0 for some 0 < α < 1. If the initial conditions, u 0 and ψ 0, are smooth, satisfying u 0 = 0 at z = 0, 1, and log(u 0 )φ(x, y, z)dxdydz 0, (ψ 0 ) z φ(x, y, z)dxdydz > 0, [0,1] 3 [0,1] 3 where φ(x, y, z) = sin(x) sin(y) cosh(α(1 z)), then the 3D inviscid model must develop a finite time singularity. Moreover, if the ω-equation is viscous and ω satisfies the same boundary condition as ψ, then the 3D model with partial viscosity must develop a finite time singularity.
37 Recent progress on full Euler/NSE, joint with Dr. Guo Luo A recent study of the full 3D NSE and Euler equations reveals that for certain axi-symmetric initial data with swirl, the solution could develop a strong dynamic nonlinear alignment in the vortex stretching term. Our preliminary numerical study shows that the solution of the 3D Euler/NSE could experience a strong transitional growth in time with a quadratic nonlinearity, between u 1 and ψ 1z, u 1t + u r (u 1 ) r + u z (u 1 ) z = 2u 1 ψ 1z + ν u 1. An important question is whether the profile near the potentially singular region remains dynamically stable. The dynamic evolution of u 1 and w 1 on the (r, z)-plane can be visualized in the following contour plots.

47 The quadratic nonlinearity, u 1t + u u 1 = 2u 1 ψ 1z We observe that the nonlinear u 1 -stretching term, 2ψ 1z, is comparable with u 1 at the maximum of u 1. This quadratic nonlinearity is the driving force behind the rapid growth of u 1 and ω Nonlinear stretching of u1 a function of t 2 phi1 z max u t Figure : Ratio of the u 1-stretching term, 2ψ 1, to u 1 at the maximum of u 1.
48 Approaching the axis r = 0 To see how fast the solution is approaching r = 0, we plot the location (r 1, z 1 ) of the maximum of u 1 as a function of time. 3.5 x 10 3 r1 2 as a function of t, where r1 is the r coordinate of maxloc u1 3.5 x 10 3 z1 2 as a function of t, where z1 is the z coordinate of maxloc u r1 2 z t t Figure : Plot of r1 2 and z1 2 as a function of time, where (r 1, z 1) is the point at which u 1 attains its maximum.

50 Asymptotic scaling for 1/ max u 1 Assuming that the solution blows up at a finite time T with a blowup rate O(T t) α, we can obtain a crude estimate of T and α using a line fitting procedure. 9 x /max u1 as a function of t /max u t Figure : Plot of 1/ max u 1 as a function of time. This suggests that u 1 L c/(t t).
51 Asymptotic scaling for 1/ max ω x /max w1 2/3 as a function of t 2 1/max w1 2/ t Figure : Plot of 1/ max ω 1 2/3 as a function of time. This seems to suggest that ω 1 L c/(t t) 3/2.
52 Asymptotic scaling for 1/ max ψ /max phi1 2 as a function of t /phi t Figure : Plot of 1/ max ψ 1 2 as a function of time. This seems to suggest that ψ 1 L c/(t t) 1/2. The estimated singularity time is T
53 Fluid dynamic instability seems to induce front instability Unfortunately (or fortunately), the fluid dynamics instability (Kelvin-Helmholtz) eventually kicks in when the thickness of the vortex sheet like structure is below some critical value. The vortex sheet develops roll-up and destroys the strong nonlinear alignment in the vortex stretching term. The flow subsequently develops many small scales dyanamically and transitions to turbulence.

62 Concluding Remarks Our study shows that convection could play a dual role in the dynamic stability or finite time singularity formation of 3D incompressible flow. One the one hand, we construct an exact 1D model, in which we show that convection plays an essential role to deplete the nonlinear vortex stretching, and the 1D model has global regularity. We also construct a new 3D model by neglecting the convection term. This 3D model shares almost all properties of the Navier-Stokes equations, but could develop finite time singularities. On the other hand, our recent study suggests that convection may not always stablize the nonlinear vortex stretching. For initial data with certain symmetry, the combined effect of convection and vortex stretching could lead to a strong nonlinear alignment. It remains to understand whether the nearly singular behavior we observed numerically is dynamically stable. If so, it may suggest a possible way to construct a singular solution analytically.
