We prove that the 3-D free-surface incompressible Euler equations with regular initial geometries and velocity fields have solutions which can form a finite-time "splash" (or "splat") singularity first introduced in [9], wherein the…

We study the formation of singularities for the Euler-Alignment system with influence function $\psi=\frac{k_\alpha}{|x|^\alpha}$ in 1D. As in [20] the problem is reduced to the analysis of a nonlocal 1D equation. We show the existence of…

We demonstrate finite-time blow-up in a simple, realistic shell model of the 3D Navier-Stokes equations, equipped with "smooth" (i.e., rapidly decaying in frequency) initial data and forcing. Previously studied models either exhibit a…
