The subcritical Hölder blow-up conjecture for axisymmetric Euler flow

Let α<1/3\alpha<1/3. Subcritical Hölder blow-up conjecture. There exists a compactly supported, axisymmetric, no-swirl local Euler solution with initial regularity CcαC^\alpha_c that becomes singular in finite time. The source notes that Cc1/3+C^{1/3+}_c solutions are globally regular, so this conjecture would close the known regularity gap; it remains open.
