Abstract

We consider the steady Stokes and Oseen problems in bounded and exterior domains of \({\mathbb{R}^n}\) of class C k-1,1 (n = 2, 3; k ≥ 2). We prove existence and uniqueness of a very weak solution for boundary data a in \({W^{2-k-1/q,q} (\partial\Omega)}\) . If \({\Omega}\) is of class \({C^\infty}\) , we can assume a to be a distribution on \({\partial\Omega}\) .
