Abstract

In this short survey paper, we focus on some new developments in the study of the regularity or potential singularity formation for solutions of the 3D Navier–Stokes equations. Some of the motivating questions are the following. Are certain norms accumulating/concentrating on small scales near potential blow-up times? At what speed do certain scale-invariant norms blow-up? Can one prove explicit quantitative regularity estimates? Can one break the criticality barrier, even slightly? We emphasize that these questions are closely linked together. Many recent advances for the Navier–Stokes equations are directly inspired by results and methods from the field of nonlinear dispersive equations.
