Abstract
We prove a Beale-Kato-Majda type criterion for the loss of regularity for solutions of the incompressible Euler equations in \({H^{s}(\mathbb {R}^3)}\) , for \({s>\frac{5}{2}}\) . Instead of double exponential estimates of Beale-Kato-Majda type, we obtain a single exponential bound on \({\|u(t)\|_{H^s}}\) involving the length parameter introduced by Constantin in (SIAM Rev. 36(1):73–98, 1994). In particular, we derive lower bounds on the blowup rate of such solutions.
