We consider quantized vortices in two-component Bose-Einstein condensates and three-component Fermi gases with attractive interactions. In these systems, the vortex core can be either empty (normal in the fermion case) or filled with…
We consider axisymmetric incompressible inviscid flows without swirl in $\mathbb{R}^3$, under the assumption that the axial vorticity is non-positive in the upper half space and odd in the last coordinate, which corresponds to the flow…

Turbulent flows play an important role in many aspects of nature and technics from sea storms to transport of particles or chemicals. Transport of energy from large scales to small fluctuations is the essential feature of three-dimensional…
We study the existence of different vortex-wave systems for inviscid gSQG flow, where the total circulation are produced by point vortices and vortices with compact support. To overcome several difficulties caused by the singular…
We discuss a simple and experimentally available realization of fracton physics. We note that superfluid vortices form a Hamiltonian system that conserves total dipole moment and trace of the quadrupole moment of vorticity; thereby…
It has long been suspected that flows of incompressible fluids at large or infinite Reynolds number (namely at small or zero viscosity) may present finite time singularities. We review briefly the theoretical situation on this point. We…
In this paper, we present a class of finite volume schemes for incompressible flow problems. The unknowns are collocated at the center of the control volumes, and the stability of the schemes is obtained by adding to the mass balance…
Quantized vortices are fundamental topological excitations of quantum fluids. We report single-shot interferometric measurements of spontaneous vortex nucleation in a room-temperature organic exciton-polariton condensate. From hundreds of…
We consider a two-dimensional, two-layer, incompressible, steady flow, with vorticity which is constant in each layer, in an infinite channel with rigid walls. The velocity is continuous across the interface, there is no surface tension or…
We revise the steady vortex surface theory following the recent finding of asymmetric vortex sheets (AM,2021). These surfaces avoid the Kelvin-Helmholtz instability by adjusting their discontinuity and shape. The vorticity collapses to the…
We investigate analytically the thermodynamical stability of vortices in the ground state of rotating 2-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensates confined in asymptotically homogeneous trapping potentials in the Thomas-Fermi regime. Our…
In this note we propose a two-layer viscous mechanism for preventing finite time singularity formation in the Moffatt-Kimura model of two counter-rotating vortex rings colliding at a nontrivial angle. In the first layer the scenario is…
A further discussion of the vortex fluid in the cuprate high Tc superconductors is presented. The crucial property of incompressibility towards the addition of net vorticity, leading to the marked nonlinearity of the response functions, is…
The coherent vortical structures in turbulent flow through a strong 16:1 3-D contraction, are studied using time-resolved volumetric measurements. Visualization using vorticity magnitude criterion shows the emergence of long, stretched…
In an electrically conducting fluid, vortices stretch out a weak, large-scale magnetic field to form strong current sheets on their edges. Associated with these current sheets are magnetic stresses, which are subsequently released through…
The quintessential vortex solution in (3+1)-dimensional nonrelativistic, incompressible fluid mechanics is the Burgers vortex. We show that, in a finite domain, conformal fluids also admit hot vortex solutions with everywhere…
