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 motion of a vortex-(anti)vortex pair is studied numerically in the framework of a dynamical Ginzburg-Landau model, relevant to the description of a superconductor or of an idealized bosonic plasma. It is shown that up to a fine…
I derive a general formalism for finding kinetic terms of the effective Lagrangian for slowly moving Chern-Simons vortices. Deformations of fields linear in velocities are taken into account. From the equations they must satisfy I extract…
We investigate the dynamics of $N$ point vortices in the plane, in the limit of large $N$. We consider {\em relative equilibria}, which are rigidly rotating lattice-like configurations of vortices. These configurations were observed in…
We consider a "symmetric" quantum droplet in two spatial dimensions, which rotates in a harmonic potential, focusing mostly on the limit of "rapid" rotation. We examine this problem using a purely numerical approach, as well as a…
We study the stability and structure of vortices emerging in two-dimensional quantum dots in high magnetic fields. Our results obtained with exact diagonalization and density-functional calculations show that vortex structures can be found…
The aim of this article is twofold. First, we show the evolution of the vortex filament equation (VFE) for a regular planar polygon in the hyperbolic space. Unlike in the Euclidean space, the planar polygon is open and both of its ends grow…
We discuss the interplay between the piece-line regular and vertex-angle singular boundary effects, related to integrability and chaotic features in rational polygonal billiards. The approach to controversial issue of regular and irregular…
Scattering methods make it possible to compute the effects of renormalized quantum fluctuations on classical field configurations. As a classic example of a topologically nontrivial classical solution, the Abrikosov-Nielsen-Olesen vortex in…
This paper explores an idealized model of the ocean surface in which widely separated surface-wave packets and point vortices interact in two horizontal dimensions. We start with a Lagrangian which, in its general form, depends on the…
We construct a series of classic vorticity solutions for incompressible Euler equation on $\mathbb S^2$, which constitute the $C^1$ type regularization for a general traveling point vortex system. The construction is accomplished by…
The vortex patterns stabilized by the square array of artificial pinning sites with a tunable pinning strength are studied by using a phenomenological approach in the London limit. The transitions between pinned and deformed triangular…
It has been remarked in several previous works that the combination of center vortices and nexuses (a nexus is a monopole-like soliton whose world line mediates certain allowed changes of field strengths on vortex surfaces) carry…
We prove the existence of non-constant time periodic vortex solutions to the Gross-Pitaevskii equations for small but \textit{fixed} $\varepsilon > 0.$ The vortices of these solutions follow periodic orbits to the point vortex system of…
In this paper we prove the existence of countable branches of rotating patches bifurcating from the ellipses at some implicit angular velocities.
We examine the $N$-vortex problem on general domains $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^2$ concerning the existence of nonstationary collision-free periodic solutions. The problem in question is a first order Hamiltonian system of the form $$…
This paper concerns the study of some special ordered structures in turbulent flows. In particular, a systematic and relevant methodology is proposed to construct non trivial and non radial rotating vortices with non necessarily uniform…
Point vortices on a cylinder (periodic strip) are studied geometrically. The Hamiltonian formalism is developed, a non-existence theorem for relative equilibria is proved, equilibria are classified when all vorticities have the same sign,…
Based on the analysis of the velocity gradient tensor, we investigate in this paper the physical interpretation and limitations of four vortex criteria: $\omega$, $Q$, $\varDelta$ and $\lambda_{ci}$, and reveal the actual physical meaning…
In two dimensions a microscopic theory providing a basis for the naive analogy between a quantized vortex in a superfluid and an electron in a uniform magnetic field is presented. Following the variational approach developed by Peierls,…
