Time-dependent singularities in the Navier-Stokes system

We show that, for a given Hölder continuous curve in $\{(γ(t),t)\,:\, t>0\} \subset R^3\times R^+$, there exists a solution to the Navier-Stokes system for an incompressible fluid in $R^3$ which is smooth outside this curve and singular on it. This is a pointwise solution of the system outside the curve, however, as a distributional solution on $R^3\times R^+$, it solves an analogous Navier-Stokes system with a singular force concentrated on the curve.
