Abstract.

Fundamental solutions for the linearizations of Stokes and Oseen of the Navier–Stokes time dependent equations in two spatial dimensions are determined. The derivation of these solutions is greatly simplified with the use of a trick known as centering in the probability literature. The relation of these time dependent solutions with their steady counterparts is also established.
