We consider a model of steady, incompressible non-Newtonian flow with neglected convective term under external forcing. Our structural assumptions allow for certain nondegenerate power-law or Carreau-type fluids. Within our setting, we provide the full-range theory, namely, existence, optimal regularity, and uniqueness of solutions, not only with respect to forcing belonging to Lebesgue spaces, but also with respect to their refinements, namely, the weighted Lebesgue spaces, with weights in a…

Weighted estimates for generalized steady Stokes systems in nonsmooth domains
We consider a generalized steady Stokes system with discontinuous coefficients in a nonsmooth domain when the inhomogeneous term belongs to a weighted Lq space for 2<q<∞. We prove the global weighted…

Stability of the Stokes projection on weighted spaces and applications
TLDR
It is shown that, on convex polytopes and two or three dimensions, the finite element Stokes projection is stable on weighted spaces where the weight belongs to a certain Muckenhoupt class and the integrability index can be different from two.
