It is shown both locally and globally that $L_t^{\infty}(L_x^{3,q})$ solutions to the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations are regular provided $q\not=\infty$. Here $L_x^{3,q}$, $0<q\leq\infty$, is an increasing scale of Lorentz spaces…
We consider the linear stability to axisymmetric perturbations of the family of inviscid vortex rings discovered by Norbury (1973). Since these vortex rings are obtained as solutions to a free-boundary problem, their stability analysis is…
We present a numerical solution in the form of a three-dimensional (3D) vortex soliton in unmagnetized plasma in the model of the generalized Zakharov equations with saturating exponential nonlinearity. To find the solution with a high…
We represent the outermost shear interface of an eddy by a circular vortex sheet in two dimensions, and provide a new proof of linear instability via the Birkhoff-Rott equation. Like planar vortex sheets, circular sheets are found to be…
This paper is devoted to the study of the singularity phenomenon of timelike extremal hypersurfaces in Minkowski spacetime $\mathbb{R}^{1+3}$. We find that there are two explicit lightlike self-similar solutions to a graph representation of…
We prove the global stability of the Minkowski space viewed as the trivial solution of the Einstein-Vlasov system. To estimate the Vlasov field, we use the vector field and modified vector field techniques developed in [FJS15; FJS17]. In…
We study the linearized 2D Euler equations around radial vortex profiles. Previous works have shown that the strict monotonicity of the vorticity profile leads to axisymmetrization and inviscid damping of non-radial perturbations. Given any…

We present a steady analytical solution of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equation for arbitrary viscosity in an arbitrary dimension $d$ of space. It represents a $d-1$ dimensional vortex "sheet" with an asymmetric profile of vorticity as…
We study time-like hypersurfaces with vanishing mean curvature in the (3+1) dimensional Minkowski space, which are the hyperbolic counterparts to minimal embeddings of Riemannian manifolds. The catenoid is a stationary solution of the…
We prove that the $3$-dimensional catenoid is asymptotically stable as a solution to the hyperbolic vanishing mean curvature equation in Minkowski space, modulo suitable translation and boost (i.e., modulation) and with respect to a…
In this article, we initiate the study of the Cauchy problem for the two-dimensional relativistic Euler equations in a low-regularity setting. By introducing good variables--a rescaled velocity, logarithmic enthalpy, and an appropriately…
We consider the free boundary problem for relativistic plasma--vacuum interfaces in two and three spatial dimensions. The plasma flow is governed by the equations of ideal relativistic magnetohydrodynamics, while the vacuum magnetic and…
We investigate the linear stability of inviscid columnar vortices with respect to finite energy perturbations. For a large class of vortex profiles, we show that the linearized evolution group has a sub-exponential growth in time, which…
