Abstract
We are interested in space-time spatially homogeneous statistical solutions of Navier-Stokes equations in space dimension three. We first review the construction of such solutions, and introduce convenient tools to study the pressure gradient. Then we show that given a spatially homogeneous initial measure with finite energy density, one can construct a homogeneous statistical solution concentrated on weak solutions which satisfy the local energy inequality.
