Supercritical nonuniqueness and non-Leray-Hopf conjecture for the Navier–Stokes equations

Let d2d\geq 2 and let p,q[1,]p,q\in[1,\infty] satisfy

2p+dq>1.\frac{2}{p}+\frac{d}{q}>1.

Supercritical nonuniqueness and non-Leray-Hopf conjecture. Then there exist two weak solutions u,vXp,q([0,T];Td)u,v\in X^{p,q}([0,T];\mathbb{T}^d) of the Navier–Stokes equations with

u(0)=v(0)butvu,u(0)=v(0)\quad\text{but}\quad v\ne u,

and there exists a weak solution uXp,q([0,T];Td)u\in X^{p,q}([0,T];\mathbb{T}^d) that is not Leray–Hopf. The conjecture proposes sharpness of the critical threshold 2p+dq=1\frac{2}{p}+\frac{d}{q}=1 for uniqueness and the Leray–Hopf property of weak solutions.
