We consider the vortex patch problem for both the 2-D and 3-D incompressible Euler equations. In 2-D, we prove that for vortex patches with $H^{k-0.5}$ Sobolev-class contour regularity, $k \ge 4$, the velocity field on both sides of the…
We study vortex patches for the 2D incompressible Euler equations. Prior works on this problem take the support of the vorticity (i.e., the vortex patch) to be a bounded region. We instead consider the horizontally periodic setting. This…
We investiage the (slightly) super-critical 2-D Euler equations. The paper consists of two parts. In the first part we prove well-posedness in $C^s$ spaces for all $s>0.$ We also give growth estimates for the $C^s$ norms of the vorticity…
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…
In 1993, two proofs of the persistence of regularity of the boundary of a classical vortex patch for the 2D Euler equations were published, one by Chemin (announced in 1991) the other by Bertozzi and Constantin. Chemin, in fact, proved a…

This paper deals with the existence of $N$ vortex patches located at the vertex of a regular polygon with $N$ sides that rotate around the center of the polygon at a constant angular velocity. That is done for Euler and (SQG)$_\beta$…
We construct a series of patch type solutions for incompressible Euler equation on $\mathbb S^2$, which constitutes the regularization for steady or traveling point vortex systems. We first prove the existence of $k$-fold symmetric patch…
We prove persistence of the regularity of the boundary of vortex patches for a large class of transport equations in the plane. The velocity field is given by convolution of the vorticity with an odd kernel, homogeneous of degree $-1$ and…
We consider concentrated vorticities for the Euler equation on a smooth domain $\Omega \subset \mathbf{R}^2$ in the form of \[ \omega = \sum_{j=1}^N \omega_j \chi_{\Omega_j}, \quad |\Omega_j| = \pi r_j^2, \quad \int_{\Omega_j} \omega_j d\mu…

We construct a family of rotating vortex patches with fixed angular velocity for the two-dimensional Euler equations in a disk. As the vorticity strength goes to infinity, the limit of these rotating vortex patches is a rotating point…
In this paper, we investigate the existence of a finite number of vortex patches for the generalized surface quasi-geostrophic (gSQG) equations with $\alpha \in [1,2)$, focusing on configurations that may rotate uniformly, translate, or…
In this paper, we study steady vortex patch solutions to the incompressible Euler equations in a planar bounded domain $D$. Let $\psi_0$ be the solution of the elliptic problem $-\Delta \psi _{0} =1$ in $D$; $\psi_0=0$ on $\partial D$. We…

The vortex-wave system describes the motion of a two-dimensional ideal fluid in which the vorticity includes continuously distributed vorticity, which is called the background vorticity, and a finite number of concentrated vortices. In this…
In this paper, we prove nonlinear stability of planar vortex patches concentrated near an isolated minimum point of the Robin function in a general bounded domain. These vortex patches are stationary solutions of the two-dimensinal…
