We study the regularity criterion for the Navier‐Stokes equations and show that the ( β 1 , β 2 , β 3 )‐Hölder continuity assumption in ( x 1 , x 2 , x 3 ) on the direction of the vorticity ensures the regularity of the solution. This may be viewed as an extension of many previous results, since some of the β i can be arbitrarily small.
