Abstract

Let u = (u h, u 3) be a smooth solution of the 3-D Navier-Stokes equations in ℝ3 × [0, T). It was proved that if u 3L (0, T; p,q −1+3/p (ℝ3)) for 3 < p,q < ∞ and u hL (0, T; BMO−1(ℝ3)) with u h(T) ∈ VMO−1(ℝ3), then u can be extended beyond T. This result generalizes the recent result proved by Gallagher et al. (2016), which requires u ∈ L (0, T; p,q −1+3/p (ℝ3)). Our proof is based on a new interior regularity criterion in terms of one velocity component, which is independent of interest.
