# Infinite-energy solutions for the Navier-Stokes equations in a strip revisited

• The paper deals with the Navier-Stokes equations in a strip in the class of spatially non-decaying (in nite-energy) solutions belonging to the properly chosen uniformly local Sobolev spaces. The global well-posedness and dissipativity of the Navier-Stokes equations in a strip in such spaces has been rst established in [22]. However, the proof given there contains a rather essential error and the aim of the present paper is to correct this error and to show that the main results of [22] remain true.
