In this paper we prove the asymptotic stability of the Kolmogorov flow on a non-square torus for perturbations $\omega_0$ satisfying $\|\omega_0\|_{H^3}\ll\nu^{1/3}$, where $0<\nu\ll1$ is the viscosity. Kolmogorov flows are important…

We consider steady solutions to the incompressible Euler equations in a two-dimensional channel with rigid walls. The flow consists of two periodic layers of constant vorticity separated by an unknown interface. Using global bifurcation…

We show that H\"{o}lder continuous incompressible Euler flows that satisfy the local energy inequality ("globally dissipative" solutions) exhibit nonuniqueness and contain examples that strictly dissipate kinetic energy. The collection of…

The issue of the inviscid limit for the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations when a no-slip condition is prescribed on the boundary is a famous open problem. A result by Tosio Kato says that convergence to the Euler equations holds true…
