The role of eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the symmetrized gradient of velocity in the theory of the Navier–Stokes equations
[Rôle des valeurs propres et des vecteurs propres du gradient symétrisé des vitesses en théorie des équations de Navier–Stokes]
Comptes Rendus. Mathématique, Tome 336 (2003) no. 10, pp. 805-810.

Dans cette Note, on formule des conditions géométriques suffisantes pour la régularité intérieure des solutions faibles ( « suitable weak ») des équations de Navier–Stokes dans un sous-domaine D du cylindre spatio–temporel QT : ces conditions suffisantes portent sur une des valeurs propres ou bien sur les composantes des vecteurs propres du gradient symétrisé.

In this Note, we formulate sufficient conditions for regularity of a so called suitable weak solution (v;p) in a sub-domain D of the time–space cylinder QT by means of requirements on one of the eigenvalues or on the eigenvectors of the symmetrized gradient of velocity.
