We povide a test for numerical simulations for the collapse of regular tubes carried by a 3D incompressible flow. In particular, we obtain necessary conditions for 3D Euler to have a vortex tube collapse in finite time.

Columnar vortices are stationary solutions of the three-dimensional Euler equations with axial symmetry, where the velocity field only depends on the distance to the axis and has no component in the axial direction. Stability of such flows…
We prove that there exist Beltrami fields in Euclidean space, with sharp decay at infinity, which have a prescribed set of invariant tori (possibly knotted or linked) that enclose an arbitrarily large number of hyperbolic periodic orbits.…
