Onsager's conjecture almost everywhere in time

Abstract

In recent work by Isett (arXiv:1211.4065), and later by Buckmaster, De Lellis, Isett and Székelyhidi Jr. (arXiv:1302.2815), iterative schemes where presented for constructing solutions belonging to the Hölder class $C^{1/5-\epsilon }$ of the 3D incompressible Euler equations which do not conserve energy. The cited work is partially motivated by a conjecture of Lars Onsager in 1949 relating to the existence of $C^{1/3-\epsilon }$ solutions to the Euler equations which dissipate energy. In this note we show how the later scheme can be adapted in order to prove the existence of non-trivial Hölder continuous solutions which for almost every time belong to the critical Onsager Hölder regularity $C^{1/3-\epsilon }$ and have compact temporal support.
