It is well known that the Euler vortex patch in $\mathbb{R}^{2}$ will remain regular if it is regular enough initially. In bounded domains, the regularity theory for patch solutions is less complete. In this paper, we study Euler vortex…
We consider the vortex patch problem for both the 2-D and 3-D incompressible Euler equations. In 2-D, we prove that for vortex patches with $H^{k-0.5}$ Sobolev-class contour regularity, $k \ge 4$, the velocity field on both sides of the…
We study vortex patches for the 2D incompressible Euler equations. Prior works on this problem take the support of the vorticity (i.e., the vortex patch) to be a bounded region. We instead consider the horizontally periodic setting. This…
We consider the two-dimensional incompressible Euler equations. We construct vortex patches with smooth boundary on $T^2$ and $R^2$ whose perimeter grows with time. More precisely, for any constant $M > 0$, we construct a vortex patch in…
We study the systems of Euler equations which arise from agent-based dynamics driven by velocity \emph{alignment}. It is known that smooth solutions of such systems must flock, namely -- the large time behavior of the velocity field…
In "Global regularity for vortex patches" (Commun. Math. Phys. 1993), Bertozzi and Constantin formulate the vortex patch problem in the level-set framework and prove a priori estimates for this active scalar equation. By extending the tools…
We investiage the (slightly) super-critical 2-D Euler equations. The paper consists of two parts. In the first part we prove well-posedness in $C^s$ spaces for all $s>0.$ We also give growth estimates for the $C^s$ norms of the vorticity…
In this paper, we prove global regularity for all smooth, axisymmetric, swirl-free solutions of the Euler equation in four dimensions. Previous works establishing global regularity for certain axisymmetric, swirl-free solutions of the Euler…
We consider vortex patch solutions of the incompressible Euler equations in the plane. It is shown that the winding number around the origin for most particles in the patch grows linearly in time when the initial patch is close to a disk…
We prove that for solutions of the Euler equation on the sphere, the vorticity gradient can grow at most double-exponentially in time, and we show that this upper bound is sharp by constructing explicit solutions with odd symmetry that…
We construct a family of rotating vortex patches with fixed angular velocity for the two-dimensional Euler equations in a disk. As the vorticity strength goes to infinity, the limit of these rotating vortex patches is a rotating point…
We consider the Cauchy problem for the full free boundary Euler equations in $3$d with an initial small velocity of size $O(\epsilon_0)$, in a moving domain which is initially an $O(\epsilon_0)$ perturbation of a flat interface. We assume…
This paper considers the temperature patch problem for the incompressible Boussinesq system with no diffusion and viscosity in the whole space $\mathbb{R}^2$. We prove that for initial patches with $W^{2,\infty}$ boundary the curvature…
We obtain a general sufficient condition on the geometry of possibly singular planar domains that guarantees global uniqueness for any weak solution to the Euler equations on them whose vorticity is bounded and initially constant near the…
We consider axisymmetric Euler flows without swirl in $\mathbb{R}^{d}$ with $d\geq 4$, for which the global regularity of smooth solutions is an open problem. When $d = 4$, we obtain global regularity under the assumption that the initial…
It is well known that the incompressible Euler equations in two dimensions have globally regular solutions. The inviscid surface quasi-geostrophic (SQG) equation has a Biot-Savart law which is one derivative less regular than in the Euler…
We construct a series of patch type solutions for incompressible Euler equation on $\mathbb S^2$, which constitutes the regularization for steady or traveling point vortex systems. We first prove the existence of $k$-fold symmetric patch…
We prove persistence of the regularity of the boundary of vortex patches for a large class of transport equations in the plane. The velocity field is given by convolution of the vorticity with an odd kernel, homogeneous of degree $-1$ and…
We prove the uniqueness and finite-time existence of bounded-vorticity solutions to the 2D Euler equations having velocity growing slower than the square root of the distance from the origin, obtaining global existence for more slowly…
We construct an initial data for two-dimensional Euler equation in a disk for which the gradient of vorticity exhibits double exponential growth in time for all times. This estimate is known to be sharp - the double exponential growth is…
