Abstract

We present a new regularity criterion for suitable weak solutions of the steady-state Navier-Stokes equations near boundary in dimension five. We show that suitable weak solutions are regular up to the boundary if the scaled $L^{\frac{5}{2}}$-norm of the solution is small near the boundary. Our result is also valid in the interior.
