Analysis of regularized Navier-Stokes equations. I, II

A regularized form of the conventional Navier-Stokes equations is analyzed. The global existence and uniqueness are established for two classes of generalized solutions. It is shown that the solution of this regularized system converges to the solution of the conventional Navier-Stokes equations for low Reynolds numbers. Particular attention is given to the structure of attractors characterizing the solutions. Both local and global invariant manifolds are found, and the regularity properties of these manifolds are analyzed.
