Abstract

In this paper, we study the asymptotic behavior of solutions to the three-dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations (NSE) with periodic boundary conditions and potential body forces. In particular, we prove that the Foias-Saut asymptotic expansion for the regular solutions of the NSE in fact holds in all Gevrey classes. This strengthens the previous result obtained in Sobolev spaces by Foias-Saut. By using the Gevrey-norm technique of Foias-Temam, the proof of our improved result simplifies the original argument of Foias-Saut, thereby, increasing its adaptability to other dissipative systems. Moreover, the expansion is extended to all Leray-Hopf weak solutions.
