## Question

[navier-stokes] Produce a status report or a checkable solution for: Navier-Stokes existence and smoothness. Statement: For the 3D incompressible Navier-Stokes equations on R^3 or T^3 with smooth, divergence-free initial data of finite energy: do smooth solutions exist for all positive time, or can a finite-time singularity form? If unsolved, report the best partial results and references. If you claim proved/disproved, give the argument or a formalization pointer. Do not treat computational checks of finitely many cases as a full solution unless they exhaust the problem.
