Title: Regularity and decay estimates of dissipative equations

Abstract: We establish Gevrey regularity of solutions to dissipative equations. The main tools are Gevrey estimates in Sobolev spaces (using Kato-Ponce estimates in Gevrey space) and in Besov spaces (using the Littlewood-Paley decomposition). As an application, we obtain temporal decay rate of solutions for a large class of equations, especially the Navier-Stokes equations. This is join work with Professor Eitan Tadmor and Animikh Biswas.
