$H^s$-mild solution for Navier–Stokes : why do we restrict attention to the function spaces "without Fourier zero mode"? (Related to Terence Tao blog)
This question has been triggered by the Definition 32 and Remark 33 in the blog of Terence Tao.
There, every function space is restricted to ones without the Fourier zeroth mode. And the Remark 33 ...
