Uniqueness of Solutions on the Whole Time Axis to the Navier-Stokes Equations in Unbounded Domains

We consider the uniqueness of bounded continuous L^{3, ∞}-solutions on the whole time axis to the Navier-Stokes equations in 3-dimensional unbounded domains. Here, L^{p, q} denotes the scale of Lorentz spaces. Thus far, uniqueness of such solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations in unbounded domain, roughly speaking, is known only for a small solution in BC(?; L^{3, ∞}) within the class of solutions which have sufficiently small L^∞(L^{3, ∞})-norm. In this paper, we discuss another type of uniqueness theorem for solutions in BC(?; L^{3, ∞}) using a smallness condition for one solution and a precompact range condition for the other one. The proof is based on the method of dual equations.
