Closed Estimates of Leray Projected Transport Noise and Strong Solutions of the Stochastic Euler Equations

We consider the incompressible Euler and Navier-Stokes equations on the three dimensional torus, in velocity form, perturbed by a transport or transport-stretching Stratonovich noise. Closed control of the noise contributions in energy estimates are demonstrated, for any positive integer ordered Sobolev Space and the equivalent Stokes Space; difficulty arises due to the presence of the Leray Projector disrupting cancellation of the top order derivative. This is particularly pertinent in the case of a transport noise without stretching, where the vorticity form cannot be used. As a consequence we obtain, for the first time, the existence of a local strong solution to the corresponding stochastic Euler equation. Furthermore, smooth solutions are shown to exist until blow-up in L^1left([0,T];W^{1,infty}right).
