Sharpness conjecture for the enstrophy dissipation rate of measure vorticities
Let and . On the two-dimensional torus , let be a divergence-free vector field in with vorticity decomposed as
where and . Let be the corresponding sequence of Leray solutions to the two-dimensional Navier–Stokes vorticity equation. Sharpness conjecture. There exists such initial data for which
for every . The conjecture proposes that the previously obtained upper bound for the enstrophy dissipation rate is essentially sharp, although constructing initial vorticities whose Navier–Stokes evolution attains this rate remains open.
