The purpose of this work is to discuss the well-posedness theory of singular vortex patches. Our main results are of two types: well-posedness and ill-posedness. On the well-posedness side, we show that globally $m-$fold symmetric vortex…

In this expository work, we present Vishik's theorem on non-unique weak solutions to the two-dimensional Euler equations on the whole space, \[ \partial_t \omega + u \cdot \nabla \omega = f \, , \quad u = \frac{1}{2\pi}…

Extending the results of Elling \cite{Elling-2013, Elling-2016}, we construct a weak solution of 2D incompressible Euler equation with initial vorticity of the form $w_0(x)={\left\vert x \right\vert}^{-1/\mu}g(\theta)$, where $g \in…
