Abstract

We first recall results on space-time decay of solutions to the Navier-Stokes equation in the whole space n which were developed in [9] and [1]. Next we give an example of a solution with radial vorticity to the Navier-Stokes equations in 2D, where the space-time decay rate can be computed explicitly.
