Nonlinear instability for the Navier-Stokes equations

Abstract

It is proved, using a bootstrap argument, that linear instability implies nonlinear instability for the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in $L^p$ for all $p\in (1,\infty )$ and any finite or infinite domain in any dimension $n$.
