We study the interaction between the stability, and the propagation of regularity, for solutions to the incompressible 3D Euler equation. It is still unknown whether a solution with smooth initial data can develop a singularity in finite…
This note addresses the question of energy conservation for the 2D Euler system with an $L^p$-control on vorticity. We provide a direct argument, based on a mollification in physical space, to show that the energy of a weak solution is…
A classical model for sources and sinks in a two-dimensional perfect incompressible fluid occupying a bounded domain dates back to Yudovich in 1966. In this model, on the one hand, the normal component of the fluid velocity is prescribed on…

The 2D Euler equations are a simple but rich set of non-linear PDEs that describe the evolution of an ideal inviscid fluid, for which one dimension is negligible. Solving numerically these equations can be extremely demanding. Several…

The existing paradox between theory and computational experiment for weak solutions of systems of conservation laws in higher space dimensions is arguably resolved. Apparently successful computations are identified with underlying…
Incompressible Euler flows in narrow domains, in which the horizontal length scale is much larger than other scales, play an important role in applications, and their leading-order behavior can be described by the hydrostatic Euler…
