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…
In this paper, we obtain uniformly rotating vorticity with sufficiently large angular velocity in the unit disk. The solution consists of either a small nearly-ellipse vortex patch which is highly concentrated near the origin or a $2+1$…
This paper deals with the existence of $N$ vortex patches located at the vertex of a regular polygon with $N$ sides that rotate around the center of the polygon at a constant angular velocity. That is done for Euler and (SQG)$_\beta$…
In this note, we consider the radial symmetry property of rotating vortex patches for the 2D incompressible Euler equations in the unit disc. By choosing a suitable vector field to deform the patch, we show that each simply-connected…

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 relative equilibrium solutions of the two-dimensional Euler equations in which the vorticity is concentrated on a union of finite-length vortex sheets. Using methods of complex analysis, more specifically the theory of the…
We study incompressible Euler equations in $\mathbb{R}^d$ with $d \ge 4$ under bi-rotational symmetry without swirl, which reduces the Euler equations to a scalar vorticity advection in the first quadrant. We show that patch type initial…
By applying implicit function theorem on contour dynamics, we prove the existence of co-rotating and travelling patch solutions for both Euler and the generalized surface quasi-geostrophic equation. The solutions obtained constitute a…
The deformation of two-dimensional vortex patches in the vicinity of fluid boundaries is investigated. The presence of a boundary causes an initially circular patch of uniform vorticity to deform. Sufficiently far away from the boundary,…
The motion of a two-dimensional buoyant vortex patch, i.e. a vortex patch with a uniform density different from the uniform density of the surrounding fluid, is analyzed in terms of evolution equations for the motion of its centroid,…
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…
