In this paper, we develop and analyze two stabilized mixed virtual element schemes for the Stokes problem based on the lowest-order velocity-pressure pairs (i.e., a piecewise constant approximation for pressure and an approximation with an accuracy order $k = 1$ for velocity). By applying local pressure jump and projection stabilization, we ensure the well-posedness of our discrete schemes and obtain the corresponding optimal $H^1$- and $L^2$-error estimates. The proposed schemes offer a number of attractive computational properties, such as, the use of polygonal/polyhedral meshes (including non-convex and degenerate elements), yielding a symmetric linear system that involves neither the calculations of higher-order derivatives nor additional coupling terms, and being parameter-free in the local pressure projection stabilization. Finally, we present the matrix implementations of the essential ingredients of our stabilized virtual element methods and investigate two- and three-dimensional numerical experiments for incompressible flow to show the performance of these numerical schemes.
