We study the subsonic flows governed by full Euler equations in the half plane bounded below by a piecewise smooth curve asymptotically approaching x1-axis. Nonconstant conditions in the far field are prescribed to ensure the real Euler…
Sinusoidal flows are an important class of explicit stationary solutions of the two-dimensional incompressible Euler equations on a flat torus. For such flows, the steam functions are eigenfunctions of the negative Laplacian. In this paper,…

We investigate the motion of a family of closed curves evolving according to the geometric evolution law on a given two dimensional manifold which is embedded or immersed in the three-dimensional Euclidean space. We derive a system of…
This is the second of two papers studying both the geometric structure of Fano fibrations and the application to K\"ahler-Ricci flows developing a singularity in finite time. We assume that the K\"ahler-Ricci flow on a compact K\"ahler…
Some classical and recent results on the Euler equations governing perfect (incompressible and inviscid) fluid motion are collected and reviewed, with some small novelties scattered throughout. The perspective and emphasis will be given…
One may trace the idea that spectral flow should be given as the integral of a one form back to the 1974 Vancouver ICM address of I.M. Singer. Our main theorem gives analytic formulae for the spectral flow along a norm differentiable path…
We study a class of fourth order curvature flows on a compact Riemannian manifold, which includes the gradient flows of a number of quadratic geometric functionals, as for instance the L2 norm of the curvature. Such flows can develop a…
This paper proposes a new general methodology for finite-time singularity formation for moving interface problems involving the incompressible Euler equations in the plane. The first problem considered is the two-phase Euler vortex sheets…
Submersions with definite folds are submersions on manifolds with boundary whose restrictions to the boundary are definite fold maps. In this paper, we study the properties from the viewpoint of differential topology of manifolds with…
We prove an existence result for solutions to the stationary Euler equations in a domain with nonsmooth boundary. This is an extension of a previous existence result in smooth domains by Alber (1992). The domains we consider have a boundary…
Newton flows are dynamical systems generated by a continuous, desingularized Newton method for mappings from a Euclidean space to itself. We focus on the special case of meromorphic functions on the complex plane. Inspired by the analogy…
Over the last decade, substantial progress has been made in understanding the topology of quasi-2D non-equilibrium fluid flows driven by ATP-powered microtubules and microorganisms. By contrast, the topology of 3D active fluid flows still…
Guderley's 1942 work on radial shock waves provides cases of self-similar Euler flows exhibiting blowup of primary (undifferentiated) flow variables: a converging shock wave invades a quiescent region, and the velocity and pressure in its…
In prior work the authors introduced a parabolic flow for pluriclosed metrics, referred to as pluriclosed flow. We also demonstrated that this flow, after certain gauge transformations, gives a class of solutions to the renormalization…
Yau's uniformization conjecture states: a complete noncompact K\"ahler manifold with positive holomorphic bisectional curvature is biholomorphic to $\ce^n$. The K\"ahler-Ricci flow has provided a powerful tool in understanding the…
We develop an abstract theory of flows of geometric $H$-structures, i.e., flows of tensor fields defining $H$-reductions of the frame bundle, for a closed and connected subgroup $H\subset SO(n)$, on any connected and oriented $n$-manifold…

We consider smooth flows preserving a smooth invariant measure, or, equivalently, locally Hamiltonian flows on compact orientable surfaces and show that almost every such locally Hamiltonian flow with only simple saddles has singular…
This paper studies regular topological flows $f^t$ defined on closed {topological} manifolds $M^n$. The chain recurrent set of such a flow consists of a finite number of topologically hyperbolic fixed points and periodic orbits. Like their…
