Abstract

Building on the work of Crouseilles and Faou on the 2D case, we construct CC^\infty quasi-periodic solutions to the incompressible Euler equations with periodic boundary conditions in dimension 3 and in any even dimension. These solutions are genuinely high-dimensional, which is particularly interesting because there are extremely few examples of high-dimensional initial data for which global solutions are known to exist. These quasi-periodic solutions can be engineered so that they are dense on tori of arbitrary dimension embedded in the space of solenoidal vector fields. Furthermore, in the two-dimensional case we show that quasi-periodic solutions are dense in the phase space of the Euler equations. More precisely, for any integer N1N\geq 1 we prove that any LqL^q initial stream function can be approximated in LqL^q (strongly when 1q<1\leq q< \infty and weak-* when q=q=\infty) by smooth initial data whose solutions are dense on NN-dimensional tori.
