We give a rigorous mathematical result, supported by numerical simulations, of the aggregation of a concentrated vortex blob with an underlying non-constant vorticity field: the blob moves in the direction of the gradient of the field. It…

Let $\cM$ be a Brakke flow of $n$-dimensional surfaces in $R^N$. The singular set $\cS\subset\cM$ has a stratification $\cS^0\subset\cS^1\subset...\cS$, where $X\in \cS^j$ if no tangent flow at $X$ has more than $j$ symmetries. Here, we…

This paper is concerned with the numerical analysis of the explicit Euler scheme for ordinary differential equations with non-Lipschitz vector fields. We prove the convergence of the Euler scheme to regular lagrangian flow (Diperna-Lions…

We prove the existence and uniqueness of Stochastic Lagrangian Flows and almost everywhere Stochastic Flows for non-degenearted SDEs with rough coefficients. As an application of our main result, we show that there exists a unique…

We study gradient flows of general functionals with linear growth with very weak assumptions. Classical results concerning characterisation of solutions require differentiability of the Lagrangian, as for the time-dependent minimal surface…

Rotationally coherent Lagrangian vortices are formed by tubes of deforming fluid elements that complete equal bulk material rotation relative to the mean rotation of the deforming fluid volume. We show that initial positions of such tubes…

We establish normal forms for conformal vector fields on pseudo-Riemannian manifolds in the neighborhood of a singularity. For real-analytic Lorentzian manifolds, we show that the vector field is analytically linearizable or the manifold is…

We derive a theory for material surfaces that maximally inhibit the diffusive transport of a dynamically active vector field, such as the linear momentum, the angular momentum or the vorticity, in general fluid flows. These special material…

We study instability of unidirectional flows for the linearized 2D Navier-Stokes equations on the torus. Unidirectional flows are steady states whose vorticity is given by Fourier modes corresponding to a single vector $\mathbf p \in…

We present a new formulation of some basic differential geometric notions on a smooth manifold M, in the setting of nonstandard analysis. In place of classical vector fields, for which one needs to construct the tangent bundle of M, we…

This paper concerns the study of some special ordered structures in turbulent flows. In particular, a systematic and relevant methodology is proposed to construct non trivial and non radial rotating vortices with non necessarily uniform…

In this paper, we classify all polynomial vector fields in $\mathbb{R}^3$ of degree up to three such that their flow makes the torus $$\mathbb{T}^2=\{(x,y,z)\in \mathbb{R}^3:(x^2+y^2-a^2)^2+z^2-1=0\}~\mbox{with}~a\in (1,\infty)$$ invariant.…

We study several different types of BPS flows within minimal $\mathcal{N}=1$, $D=7$ supergravity with $\textrm{SU}(2)$ gauge group and non-vanishing topological mass. After reviewing some known domain wall solutions involving only the…
