Smoothness conjecture for the exponential attractor under finite dissipation

Let f=fBf=f_B, and let kk be sufficiently large depending on the internal parameters Omega Omega, LL, bb, and pp. There is a proper fractal exponential attractor

AexpY\mathcal A_{\text{exp}}\subset Y

with finite fractal dimension in YY for the dynamics (St,Y)(S_t,Y). If the dissipation integral is finite, namely

Tut2dτ<,\int_T^\infty\lVert u_t\rVert^2\,d\tau<\infty,

then the fractal exponential attractor satisfies

AexpW,\mathcal A_{\text{exp}}\subset W,

and is bounded in the topology of WW. Smoothness conjecture. Under the stated assumptions, finite dissipation implies that the fractal exponential attractor is bounded in the stronger topology WW. The source presents this as a conjectural consequence for the reduced plate model; no resolution is supplied.
