We study the Kolomogorov two-equation model of turbulence in one space dimension. Two are the main results of the paper. First of all, we establish a local well-posedness theory in Sobolev spaces even in the case of vanishing mean turbulent…
Current-vortex sheet is one of the characteristic discontinuities in ideal compressible magnetohydrodynamics (MHD). The motion of current-vortex sheets is described by a free-interface problem of two-phase MHD flows with magnetic fields…

Using dynamical density functional theory we calculate the speed of solidification fronts advancing into a quenched two-dimensional model fluid of soft-core particles. We find that solidification fronts can advance via two different…
This paper is concerned with the global well-posedness of the two-dimensional incompressible vorticity equation in the half plane. Under the assumption that the initial vorticity $\omega_0\in W^{k,p}(\R^{2}_+)$ with $k\geq3$ and $1<p<2$, it…

Vortices play a fundamental role in the physics of two-dimensional (2D) fluids across a range of length scales, from quantum superfluids to geophysical flows. Despite a history dating back to Helmholtz, point vortices in a 2D fluid continue…
We show that the boundary of a rotating vortex patch (or V-state, in the terminology of Deem and Zabusky) is of class C^infinity provided the patch is close enough to the bifurcation circle in the Lipschitz norm. The rotating patch is…
Vortex phenomena are ubiquitous in nature, from vortices of quantum particles and living cells [1-7], to whirlpools, tornados, and spiral galaxies. Yet, effective control of vortex transport from one place to another at any scale has thus…
Consider a random initial vorticity $\omega_0(x) = \sum_{n\in \mathbb{Z}^2} a_n \phi(x-n)$, where $\phi$ is bounded and compactly supported and $\{a_n\}$ are independent, uniformly bounded, mean $0$, variance $1$ random variables (i.e.…
Wakes of upswept afterbodies are often characterized by a counter-rotating streamwise vortex pair. The unsteady dynamics of these vortices are examined with a spatio-temporally resolved Large-Eddy Simulation dataset on a representative…
We consider pairs of point vortices having circulations $\Gamma_1$ and $\Gamma_2$ and confined to a two-dimensional surface $S$. In the limit of zero initial separation $\varepsilon$, we prove that they follow a magnetic geodesic in unison,…
Polariton condensates have proved to be model systems to investigate topological defects, as they allow for direct and non-destructive imaging of the condensate complex order parameter. The fundamental topological excitations of such…
We study an effective field theory of a vortex lattice in a two-dimensional neutral rotating superfluid. Utilizing particle-vortex dualities, we explore its formulation in terms of a $U(1)$ gauge theory coupled to elasticity, that at low…
Arrangement of interacting particles on a sphere is historically a well known problem, however, ordering of particles with anisotropic interaction, such as the dipole-dipole interaction, has remained unexplored. We solve the orientational…
The spinning vortex is a stationary generalization of the Nielsen-Olesen vortex involving a linear time dependence of the Goldstone boson. Here we show that this vortex can be embedded in models with $SU(2)_{global}\times U(1)_{local}$…
We study magnetic vortex-like solutions lying on the spherical surface. The simplest cylindrically symmetric vortex presents two cores (instead of one, like in open surfaces) with same charge, so repealing each other. However, the net…
In this paper, we are concerned with nonlinear desingularization of steady vortex rings in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with given general nonlinearity $f$. Using the improved vorticity method, we construct a family of steady vortex rings which…
