Tóm tắt

The uniqueness of solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations in the whole space is established when the velocity field is bounded and the pressure field is a BMO-valued locally integrable-in-time function for bounded initial data. Here the velocity field may not decay at space infinity. Although there are a few results concerning uniqueness without the decay assumption, our result is new and applicable for solutions constructed by solving the integral equations.
