Special Year 2021-22: Workshop on Recent developments in incompressible fluid dynamics

For any regularity exponent $\beta<\frac 12$, we construct non-conservative weak solutions to the 3D incompressible Euler equations in the class $C^0_t (H^{\beta} \cap L^{\frac{1}{(1-2\beta)}})$.  By interpolation, such solutions belong to $C^0_tB^{s}_{3,\infty}$ for $s$ approaching $\frac 13$ as $\beta$ approaches $\frac 12$.  Hence this result provides a new proof of the flexible side of the Onsager conjecture, which is independent from that of Isett.  Of equal importance is that the intermittent nature of our solutions matches that of turbulent flows, which are observed to possess an $L^2$-based regularity index exceeding $\frac 13$.  The proof employs an intermittent convex integration scheme for the 3D incompressible Euler equations.  We employ a scheme with higher-order Reynolds stresses, which are corrected via a combinatorial placement of intermittent pipe flows of optimal relative intermittency.
