Vortices are pervasive in nature, representing the breakdown of laminar fluid flow and hence playing a key role in turbulence. The fluid rotation associated with a vortex can be parameterized by the circulation $\Gamma=\oint {\rm d}{\bf…

The 3D incompressible Euler equations in a bounded domain are most often supplemented with impermeable boundary conditions, which constrain the fluid to neither enter nor leave the domain. We establish well-posedness with inflow, outflow of…

We consider the inviscid limit for the two-dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equation in the particular case where the initial flow is a finite collection of point vortices. We suppose that the initial positions and the circulations…
We study the motion of a single helical vortex in an unbounded, inviscid, incompressible fluid. The vortex is an infinite tube whose centerline is a helix and whose cross section is a circle of small radius (compared to the radius of…
In this paper we consider the gradient flow of the following Ginzburg-Landau type energy \[ F_\varepsilon(u) := \frac{1}{2}\int_{M}\vert D u\vert_g^2 +\frac{1}{2\varepsilon^2}\left(\vert u\vert_g^2-1\right)^2\mathrm{vol}_g. \] This energy…
We derive the vorticity equation for an incompressible fluid on a 2-dimensional surface with arbitrary topology embedded in 3-dimensional Euclidean space by using a tailored Clebsch parametrization of the flow. In the inviscid limit, we…
In the present note, we show that, as a priori bounds, the vorticity dynamics derived from Leray's backward self-similarity hypothesis admits only trivial solution in viscous as well as inviscid flows. By analogy, there is no non-zero…
It is shown that the Euler hydrodynamics for vortical flows of an ideal fluid coincides with the equations of motion of a charged {\it compressible} fluid moving due to a self-consistent electromagnetic field. Transition to the Lagrangian…
We constructed a family of steady vortex solutions for the lake equations with general vorticity function, which constitute a desingularization of a singular vortex. The precise localization of the asymptotic singular vortex is shown to be…
Two unusual time-integral conditional regularity results are presented for the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations. The ideas are based on $L^{2m}$-norms of the vorticity, denoted by $\Omega_{m}(t)$, and particularly on $D_{m} =…
