On the Fractal Dimension of Invariant Sets; Applications to Navier–stokes Equations
نویسندگان
چکیده
A semigroup St of continuous operators in a Hilbert space H is considered. It is shown that the fractal dimension of a compact strictly invariant set X (X b H, StX = X) admits the same estimate as the Hausdorff dimension, namely, both are bounded from above by the Lyapunov dimension calculated in terms of the global Lyapunov exponents. Applications of the results so obtained to the two–dimensional Navier–Stokes equations are given.

متن کاملThe Global Attractor for the 2d Navier-stokes Flow on Some Unbounded Domains
We extend previous results on the existence of the global attractor for the 2D Navier-Stokes equations on some unbounded domains in the sense that the forcing term need not lie in any weighted space nor is the boundary of the domain required to be smooth. The existence of the global attractor is obtained on arbitrary open sets such that the Poincaré inequality holds and for forces in the natura...

We have studied bifurcation phenomena for the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in two space dimensions with periodic boundary conditions. Fourier representations of velocity and pressure have been used to transform the original partial diierential equations into systems of ordinary diierential equations (ODE), to which then numerical methods for the qualitative analysis of systems of ODE ...

Herein I define the global attractor for the semidynamical system (H, {S(t)}t≥0), where H is a Hilbert space and S(t) is a semigroup. In particular, I will consider the semigroup S(t) which acts on a relevant function space by S(t)u0 = u(t; u0), where u(t; u0) is the solution of a given partial differential equation at time t with initial condition u(0) = u0. By imposing regularity properties o...
متن کاملSharp Estimates for the Number of Degrees of Freedom for the Damped-Driven 2-D Navier-Stokes Equations
We derive upper bounds for the number of asymptotic degrees (determining modes and nodes) of freedom for the two-dimensional Navier–Stokes system and Navier-Stokes system with damping. In the first case we obtain the previously known estimates in an explicit form, which are larger than the fractal dimension of the global attractor. However, for the Navier–Stokes system with damping our estimate...
