Beirão da Veiga, Hugo; Berselli, Luigi C. On the regularizing effect of the vorticity direction in incompressible viscous flows. (English) Zbl 1014.35072 Differ. Integral Equ. 15, No. 3, 345-356 (2002). The paper deals with the global existence in time of strong solutions to the 3D Navier-Stokes equations. When the direction of the vorticity belongs to some suitable Sobolev spaces, then supposing the existence of a weak solution, the existence of a unique smooth solution of the Cauchy problem for the Navier-Stokes equations is proved.
