Decay and vanishing of some D-solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations

An old problem since Leray \cite{Le:1} asks whether homogeneous D solutions of the 3 dimensional Navier-Stokes equation in ${\mathbb{R}}^3$ or some noncompact domains are 0. In this paper, we give a positive solution to the problem in two special cases: (1) when the solution is axially symmetric and periodic in the vertical variable; (2) full 3 dimensional slab case ${\mathbb{R}}^2\times [0,1]$ with Dirichlet boundary condition. Other partial results are also presented. The paper is self contained comparing with the first part \cite{CPZ:1} although the general idea is related.
