We show that a formulation using correlation measures, which are probability measures accounting for spatial correlations, and moment equations is equivalent to statistical solutions in the Foias-Prodi sense. Under the assumption of weak scaling, a weaker version of Kolmogorov's self-similarity at small scales hypothesis that allows for intermittency corrections, we show that the limit is a statistical solution of the incompressible Euler equations. To pass to the limit, we derive a Karman-Howarth-Monin relation for statistical solutions and combine it with the weak scaling assumption and a compactness theorem for correlation measures.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2022-03-22T20:19:34.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "statistical solution", "incompressible navier-stokes equation", "vanishing viscosity limit", "correlation measures", "small scales hypothesis" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
