Abstract
Taking account of the intermittency effect, we introduce the notion of determining wavenumber for a turbulent vector field without any assumption on the regularity. The time average of the determining wavenumber is shown to be bounded by Kolmogorov’s dissipation wavenumber $K_d$. It provides a rigorous justification of Kolmogorov’s prediction that the wavenumber $K_d$ separates the inertial range from the dissipation range. Inspirations for the regularity theory of the Navier-Stokes equation will be also discussed.
