This chapter introduces the divergence equation. A key ingredient in the proof of the Main Lemma for continuous solutions is to find special solutions to this divergence equation, which includes a smooth function and a smooth vector field on ³, plus an unknown, symmetric (2, 0) tensor. The chapter presents a proposition that takes into account a condition relating to the conservation of momentum as well as a condition that reflects Newton's law, which states that every action must have an equal and opposite reaction. This axiom, in turn, implies the conservation of momentum in classical mechanics. In view of Noether's theorem, the constant vector fields which act as Galilean symmetries of the Euler equation are responsible for the conservation of momentum. The chapter shows proof that all solutions to the Euler-Reynolds equations conserve momentum.
