We study, in some detail, the linear stability of closed timelike curves in the Goedel metric. We show that these curves are stable. We present a simple extension (deformation) of the Goedel metric that contains a class of closed timelike…
We consider a family of 2D logarithmic spiral vortex sheets which include the celebrated spirals introduced by Prandtl (Vortr\"age aus dem Gebiete der Hydro- und Aero-dynamik, 1922) and by Alexander (Phys. Fluids, 1971). We prove that for…
In this expository note we discuss our recent work [arXiv:1306.5028] on the nonlinear asymptotic stability of shear flows in the 2D Euler equations of ideal, incompressible flow. In that work it is proved that perturbations to the Couette…
A phenomenological two-fluid model of the (time-reversible) spectrally-truncated 3D Euler equation is proposed. The thermalized small scales are first shown to be quasi-normal. The effective viscosity and thermal diffusion are then…
We establish the stability of higher-order linear non-homogeneous Cauchy-Euler dynamic equations on time scales in the sense of Hyers and Ulam. That is, if an approximate solution of a higher-order Cauchy-Euler equation exists, then there…
In this paper we reveal the existence of a large family of new, nontrivial and smooth traveling waves for the 2D Euler equation at an arbitrarily small distance from the Couette flow in $H^s$, with $s<3/2$, at the level of the vorticity.…
In this paper, we consider the 2D second grade fluid past an obstacle satisfying the standard non-slip boundary condition at the surface of the obstacle. Second grade fluid model is a well-known non-Newtonian model, with two parameters:…
We prove the uniqueness and finite-time existence of bounded-vorticity solutions to the 2D Euler equations having velocity growing slower than the square root of the distance from the origin, obtaining global existence for more slowly…
In this paper, we prove the existence of smooth initial data for the 2D free boundary incompressible Euler equations (also known for some particular scenarios as the water wave problem), for which the smoothness of the interface breaks down…
We study spherically symmetric solutions of the cubic covariant Galileon model in curved spacetime in presence of a matter source, in the test scalar field approximation. We show that a cosmological time evolution of the Galileon field…
We examine the blow-up claims of the incompressible Euler equations for several specific flow-fields, (1) the columnar eddies in the vicinity of stagnation; (2) a quasi-three-dimensional structure for illustrating oscillations and…
We prove the existence of time-periodic leapfrogging vortex rings for the three-dimensional incompressible Euler equations, thereby providing a rigorous realization of a phenomenon first conjectured by Helmholtz (1858). In the leapfrogging…
We consider the classical point vortex model in the mean-field scaling regime, in which the velocity field experienced by a single point vortex is proportional to the average of the velocity fields generated by the remaining point vortices.…
We study the 1-d isentropic Euler equations with time-decayed damping \begin{equation} \left\{ \begin{aligned} &\partial_t \rho+\partial_x(\rho u)=0, \\ &\partial_t(\rho u)+ \partial_x(\rho u^2)+\partial_xp(\rho)=-\frac{\mu}{1+t}\rho u,\\…
In Part I of our study on 2D Euler equation, we established the spectral theorem for a linearized 2D Euler equation. We also computed the point spectrum through continued fractions, and identified the eigenvalues with nonzero real parts. In…

This paper is concerned with the asymptotic behavior of the solution to the Euler equations with time-depending damping on quadrant $(x,t)\in \mathbb{R}^+\times\mathbb{R}^+$, \begin{equation}\notag \partial_t v - \partial_x u=0, \qquad…
We consider rigidity properties of steady Euler flows in two-dimensional bounded domains. We prove that steady Euler flows in a disk with exactly one interior stagnation point and tangential boundary conditions must be circular flows, which…
We consider the question whether starting from a smooth initial condition 3D inviscid Euler flows on a periodic domain $\mathbb{T}^3$ may develop singularities in a finite time. Our point of departure is the well-known result by Kato…
For a family of second-order parabolic systems with bounded measurable, rapidly oscillating and time-dependent periodic coefficients, we investigate the sharp convergence rates of weak solutions in $L^2$. Both initial-Dirichlet and…
