Non-linear vorticity-density coupling in Lagrangian dynamics

Astrophysics 2009-10-30 v1

Abstract

We present a general Lagrangian formalism that allows the treatment of vorticity. We give solutions for the rotational perturbations up to the third-order in a flat background universe. We show how the primordial vorticity affects the evolution of the density fluctuation in high-density regions.
