We investigate a steady planar flow of an ideal fluid in a (bounded or unbounded) domain $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^2$. Let $\kappa_i\not=0$, $i=1,\ldots, m$, be $m$ arbitrary fixed constants. For any given non-degenerate critical point…

The vortex-wave system is a model for the evolution of 2D incompressible fluids in which the vorticity is split into a finite sum of Dirac masses plus an Lp part. Existence of a weak solution for this system was recently proved by Lopes…
