H¨older Continuity of Solutions of 2D Navier-Stokes Equations with Singular Forcing Peter Constantin∗ Gregory Seregin† January 21, 2009 Dedicated to Nina Nikolaevna Uraltseva Abstract We discuss the regularity of solutions of 2D incompressible Navier- Stokes equations forced by singular forces. The problem is motivated by the study of complex fluids modeled by the Navier-Stokes equations coupled to a nonlinear Fokker-Planck equation describing microscopic corpora embedded in the fluid. This leads naturally to bounded added stress and hence to W −1,∞ forcing of the Navier-Stokes equations. 1991 Mathematical subject classification (Amer. Math. Soc.): 35K, 76D.

The problem is motivated by the study of complex fluids modeled by the Navier-Stokes equations coupled to a non- linear Fokker-Planck equation describing microscopic corpora embedded in ∗The University of Chicago †Oxford University 1 the fluid. This leads naturally to bounded added stress and hence to W −1,∞ forcing of the Navier-Stokes equations. A more detailed description of the problem in question, together with an application of the results in the present paper can be found in our forthcoming paper [2]. In this paper we focus on the 2D Navier-Stokes issues. The global ex- istence of energy solutions and their uniqueness are well known as classical results of J. Leray for the Cauchy problem and O. Ladyzhenskaya for initial boundary value problems in bounded domains. These results remain to be true for singular forces as well. The regularity of energy solutions wit
