As a model for vortex-wall interactions, we consider the two-dimensional incompressible Navier--Stokes equations in the half-plane $R^2_+$ with no-slip boundary condition and point vortices as initial data. We focus on the paradigmatic…

We consider the exotic vortex equations on compact Riemann surfaces. These generalise the well-known Jackiw-Pi and Ambj{\o}rn-Olesen vortex equations and arise as equations for Bogomolny-Prasad-Sommerfield-like configurations in…
