Partial boundary regularity for the Navier-Stokes equations in irregular domains

Abstract: We prove partial regularity of suitable weak solutions to the Navier--Stokes equations at the boundary in irregular domains. In particular, we provide a criterion which yields continuity of the velocity field in a boundary point and obtain solutions which are continuous in a.a. boundary boundary point (their existence is a consequence of a new maximal regularity result for the Stokes equations in domains with minimal regularity). We suppose that we have a Lipschitz boundary with locally small Lipschitz constant which belongs to the fractional Sobolev space $W^{2-1/p,p}$ for some $p>\frac{15}{4}$. The same result was previously only known under the much stronger assumption of a $C^2$-boundary.
