We investigate the gradient flow of the $L^2$ norm of the Riemannian curvature on surfaces. We show long time existence with arbitrary initial data, and exponential convergence of the volume normalized flow to a constant scalar curvature…
In 1966, Arnold [1] showed that the Lagrangian flow of ideal incompressible fluids (described by Euler equations) coincide with the geodesic flow on the manifold of volume preserving diffeomorphisms of the fluid domain. Arnold's proof and…
The classical plane Couette flow, plane Poiseuille flow, and pipe Poiseuille flow share some universal 3D steady coherent structure in the form of "streak-roll-critical layer". As the Reynolds number approaches infinity, the steady coherent…
We consider here the simplified Ericksen-Leslie system on the whole three-dimensional space. This system deals with the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations strongly coupled with a harmonic map flow which models the dynamical behavior for…
We prove the asymptotic stability of shear flows close to the Couette flow for the 2-D inhomogeneous incompressible Euler equations on $\mathbb{T}\times \mathbb{R}$. More precisely, if the initial velocity is close to the Couette flow and…
We prove an existence result for solutions to the stationary Euler equations in a domain with nonsmooth boundary. This is an extension of a previous existence result in smooth domains by Alber (1992). The domains we consider have a boundary…
We consider the flow of an { ideal} fluid in a 2D-bounded domain, admitting flows through the boundary of this domain. The flow is described by Euler equations with \textit{non-homogeneous } Navier slip boundary conditions. These conditions…
The two-dimensional ideal (Euler) fluids can be described by the classical fields of streamfunction, velocity and vorticity and, in an equivalent manner, by a model of discrete point-like vortices interacting in plane by a self-generated…

We prove the existence of steady \emph{space quasi-periodic} stream functions, solutions for the Euler equation in vorticity-stream function formulation in the two dimensional channel ${\mathbb R}\times [-1,1]$. These solutions bifurcate…
We consider the evolution of an incompressible two-dimensional perfect fluid as the boundary of its domain is deformed in a prescribed fashion. The flow is taken to be initially steady, and the boundary deformation is assumed to be slow…
The Euler equations on a three-dimensional periodic domain have a family of shear flow steady states. We show that the linearised system around these steady states decomposes into subsystems equivalent to the linearisation of shear flows in…
