Abstract

We consider the Navier-Stokes equations with Navier friction boundary conditions and prove two results. First, in the case of a bounded domain we prove that weak Leray solutions converge (locally in time in dimension >= 3 and globally in time in dimension 2) as the viscosity goes to 0 to a strong solution of the Euler equations, provided that the initial data converge in L 2 to a sufficiently smooth limit. Second, we consider the case of a half-space and anisotropic viscosities: we fix the horizontal viscosity, send the vertical viscosity to 0 and prove convergence to the expected limit system under a weaker hypothesis on the initial data.
