The aim of this paper is to show time-decay estimates of solutions to linearized two-phase Navier-Stokes equations with surface tension and gravity. The original two-phase Navier-Stokes equations describe the two-phase incompressible…
We give an elementary proof of long time inviscid damping for Sobolev perturbations near the Couette flow $(y,0)$ for the 2D Euler equations on $\mathbb{T} \times \mathbb{R}$. For any $s>1$ and any initial vorticity perturbation of size…
We prove asymptotic stability of shear flows in a neighborhood of the Couette flow for the 2D Euler equations in the domain $\T\times[0,1]$. More precisely we prove that if we start with a small and smooth perturbation (in a suitable Gevrey…
Liouville-type theorems for the steady incompressible Navier-Stokes system are investigated for solutions in a three-dimensional slab with either no-slip boundary conditions or periodic boundary conditions. When the no-slip boundary…

In a previous paper of ours [Nonlinear Anal. 2012] we have considered the incompressible Navier-Stokes (NS) equations on a d-dimensional torus T^d, in the functional setting of the Sobolev spaces H^n(T^d) of divergence free, zero mean…
The tradition in Navier-Stokes analysis of finding estimates in terms of the Grashof number $\bG$, whose character depends on the ratio of the forcing to the viscosity $\nu$, means that it is difficult to make comparisons with other results…
We study the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in the two-dimensional strip $\mathbb{R} \times [0,L]$, with periodic boundary conditions and no exterior forcing. If the initial velocity is bounded, we prove that the solution remains…
