We consider a fluid governed by the randomly forced 2D Navier-Stokes system. It is assumed that the force is bounded, acts directly only on a small number of Fourier modes, and satisfies some natural decomposability and observability…
We consider the stationary Navier-Stokes equations on the whole plane $\mathbb{R}^2$. We show that for a given small and smooth external force around a radial flow, there exists a classical solution decaying like $|x|^{-1}$. In our result,…

Some turbulent flows self-organize into large-scale structures, rather than breaking up into ever-smaller scales. Underpinning this phenomenon is the existence of two sign-definite quantities which are conserved by the dynamics.…
