We consider a one-parameter family of invertible maps of a two-dimensional lattice, obtained by discretising the space of planar rotations. We let the angle of rotation approach $\pi/2$, and show that the limit of vanishing discretisation…
We build a minimal model of dissipative vortex dynamics in two spatial dimensions, subject to a kinematic constraint: dipole conservation. The additional conservation law implies anomalously slow decay rates for vortices. We argue that this…

It is well known that the Euler vortex patch in $\mathbb{R}^{2}$ will remain regular if it is regular enough initially. In bounded domains, the regularity theory for patch solutions is less complete. In this paper, we study Euler vortex…

It is well known that vortex patches are wellposed in $C^{1,\alpha}$ if $0<\alpha <1$. In this paper, we prove the illposedness of $C^{2}$ vortex patches. The setup is to consider the vortex patches in Sobolev spaces $W^{2,p}$ where the…

Perfect (optical) vortices (PVs) have the mooted ability to encode orbital angular momentum (OAM) onto the field within a well-defined annular ring. Although this makes the near-field radial profile independent of OAM, the far-field radial…
