Application to Lagrangian controllability", "authors": [ "J. Liao", "F. Sueur", "P. Zhang" ], "categories": [ "math.AP" ], "abstract": "We deal with the 3D Navier-Stokes equation in a smooth simply connected bounded domain, with controls on a non-empty open part of the boundary and a Navier slip-with-friction boundary condition on the remaining, uncontrolled, part of the boundary. We extend the small-time global exact controllability result in [J. M. Coron, F. Marbach and F. Sueur, Small-time global exact controllability of the Navier-Stokes equation with Navier slip-with-friction boundary conditions, J. Eur. Math. Soc., 22 (2020),1625-1673.] from Leray weak solutions to the case of smooth solutions. Our strategy relies on a refinement of the method of well-prepared dissipation of the viscous boundary layers which appear near the uncontrolled part of the boundary, which allows to handle the multi-scale features in a finer topology. As a byproduct of our analysis we also obtain a small-time global approximate Lagrangian controllability result, extending to the case of the Navier-Stokes equations the recent results [O. Glass and T. Horsin, Approximate Lagrangian controllability for the 2-D Euler equation. Application to the control of the shape of vortex patches, J. Math. Pures Appl. (9), 93 (2010), 61-90], [O.
