Euler Singularities I: Boundary Blow-Up for Smooth Exact-Odd Axisymmetric Euler with Swirl
Abstract
We construct smooth axisymmetric-with-swirl initial data in a periodic cylinder for which the three-dimensional incompressible Euler evolution develops a finite-time boundary singularity. The construction is carried out in the dynamically invariant exact-odd class where and . At the side-wall point , exact oddness gives the pointwise identities with . The proof is based on a side-wall Dirichlet parametrix for the five-dimensional lifted recovery equation . Near the wall, the effective compression kernel has leading term with controlled remainders, parity-based shear cancellation, and strain-variation bounds on narrow diagonal cones. These estimates are combined with an over-compressed dyadic angular cluster functional. The cluster functional absorbs same-scale angular fragmentation, growing dyadic windows, dynamically separated far tails, and fixed-distance exterior fields into an integrably small affine Campanato defect. The resulting invariant cluster contains a uniformly coherent component with amplitudes and satisfying the Dini comparison system
