How to get $((u \cdot \nabla v), v)) = 0$

I'm reading on weak formulations with navier stokes equation, and I read from a paper saying the following,


$((u \cdot \nabla v), v)) = 0$ which shows in particular that the nonlinear term makes no contribution to the kinetic energy. (This equality is easy to check using an integration by parts).


I could not figure out how to show the results with integration by parts.
