Abstract

In this note we describe recent results on the equations of Navier-Stokes in the exterior of a rotating domain. After rewriting the problem on a fixed exterior domain Ω in ℝn, it is shown that for initial data u0Lσp (Ω) with pn and which are satisfying a certain compatibility condition there exists a unique local mild solution to the Navier-Stokes problem. In the case of the whole space of ℝn, this local mild solution is even analytic in the space variable x.
