Title: On the inviscid problem for the Navier-Stokes equations
Abstract: Whether the solution of the Navier-Stokes equation converges
to the solution of the Euler equation as the viscosity vanishes
is one of the fundamental problems in fluid dynamics. In the talk,
we will review current results on this problem. We will also present
a recent result, joint with Vlad Vicol and Fei Wang, which shows
that the inviscid limit holds for the initial data that is analytic
only close to the boundary.
