contents We consider the axisymmetric Navier-Stokes equations in a finite cylinder $Ω\subset\mathbb{R}^3$. We assume that $v_r$, $v_φ$, $ω_φ$ vanish on the lateral boundary $\partial Ω$ of the cylinder, and that $v_z$, $ω_φ$, $\partial_z v_φ$ vanish on the top and bottom parts of the boundary $\partial Ω$, where we used standard cylindrical coordinates, and we denoted by $ω=\mathrm{curl}\, v$ the vorticity field. We use weighted estimates and $H^3$ Sobolev estimate on the modified stream function to derive three order-reduction estimates. These enable one to reduce the order of the nonlinear estimates of the equations, and help observe that the solutions to the equations are ``almost regular''. We use the order-reduction estimates to show that the solution to the equations remains regular as long as, for any $p\in (6,\infty)$, $\| v_φ\|_{L^\infty_t L^p_x}/\| v_φ\|_{L^\infty_t L^\infty_x}$ remains bounded below by a positive number.

We consider the axisymmetric Navier-Stokes equations in a finite cylinder $Ω\subset\mathbb{R}^3$. We assume that $v_r$, $v_φ$, $ω_φ$ vanish on the lateral boundary $\partial Ω$ of the cylinder, and that $v_z$, $ω_φ$, $\partial_z v_φ$ vanish on the top and bottom parts of the boundary $\partial Ω$, where we used standard cylindrical coordinates, and we denoted by $ω=\mathrm{curl}\, v$ the vorticity field. We use weighted estimates and $H^3$ Sobolev estimate on the modified stream function to derive three order-reduction estimates. These enable one to reduce the order of the nonlinear estimates of the equations, and help observe that the solutions to the equations are ``almost regular''. We use the order-reduction estimates to show that the solution to the equations remains regular as long as, for any $p\in (6,\infty)$, $\| v_φ\|_{L^\infty_t L^p_x}/\| v_φ\|_{L^\infty_t L^\infty_x}$ remains bounded below by a positive number.
