Sharpness conjecture for the singular-time dimension of wild Euler solutions

Let T>0T>0, let β<13\beta<\frac{1}{3}, and let vv be a non-conservative weak solution of the incompressible Euler equations on T3×[0,T]\mathbb{T}^3\times[0,T]. For a closed set B[0,T]\mathcal{B}\subset[0,T], assume that vv is smooth on T3×Bc\mathbb{T}^3\times\mathcal{B}^c.

Sharpness conjecture. For every β<13\beta<\frac{1}{3}, there exists a non-conservative weak solution

vCβ(T3×[0,T])v\in C^\beta\left(\mathbb{T}^3\times[0,T]\right)

and a closed set B[0,T]\mathcal{B}\subset[0,T] such that

vC(T3×Bc),dimH(B)=2β1β.v\in C^\infty\left(\mathbb{T}^3\times\mathcal{B}^c\right),\qquad \mathop{\rm \dim}\nolimits_{\mathcal{H}}(\mathcal{B})=\frac{2\beta}{1-\beta}.

The preceding lower bound shows that this Hausdorff dimension would be optimal. Establishing existence at the critical dimension would prove sharpness of the size estimate for singular times of non-conservative Hölder Euler solutions.
