| contents | We investigate the stability of the 2-D Navier-Stokes equations in the infinite channel $\mathbb{R}\times [-1,1]$ with the Navier-slip boundary condition. We show that if the initial perturbations $ω^{in}$ around the Couette flow satisfy $\|ω^{in}\|_{H^3_{x,y}\cap L^1_x H^3_y}\leq cν^{\frac13}$, the solution admits enhanced dissipation at $x$-frequencies $|k|\gg ν$ and inviscid damping effect. The key contributions lie in two parts: (1) we adopt the new decomposition of the vorticity $ω=ω_{L}+ω_e$, where $ω_L$ effectively captures a ``weak" enhanced dissipation $(1+ν^{\frac13} t)^{-\frac14}e^{-νt}$ and the corresponding velocity exhibits the inviscid damping effect; (2) we introduce the dyadic decomposition for the long time scale $t\geq ν^{-\frac16}$ and apply the ``infinite superposition principle" to the equation for $ω_e$ in order to control the growth induced by echo cascades, which appears to be novel and may hold independent significance. |
