Regularity criteria involving the pressure for the weak solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations. (English) Zbl 1075.35031

Summary: We consider the Cauchy problem for the \(n\)-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations and we prove a regularity criterion for weak solutions involving the summability of the pressure. Related results for the initial-boundary value problem are also presented.
