In this paper we show the existence of time-periodic vortex patches for the generalized surface quasi-geostrophic equation within a bounded domain. This construction is carried out for values of $\gamma$ in the range of $(1,2)$. The…
Vortex streets are periodic configurations of vortices propagating through an irrotational flow. In this paper, we study streets of hollow vortices, which are solutions to the free boundary $2$-d irrotational incompressible Euler equations.…
