We consider the existence of Beltrami fields with a nonconstant proportionality factor $f$ in an open subset $U$ of $\mathbf{R}^3$. By reformulating this problem as a constrained evolution equation on a surface, we find an explicit…

We consider the question raised by Enciso and Peralta-Salas in [4] (see arXiv:1402.6825): What nonconstant functions $f$ can occur as the proportionality factor for a Beltrami field $\mathbf{u}$ on an open subset $U \subset \mathbb{R}^3$?…

The Debye source representation for solutions to the time harmonic Maxwell equations is extended to bounded domains with finitely many smooth boundary components. A strong uniqueness result is proved for this representation. Natural complex…

A 3-dimensional vector field $B$ is said to be Beltrami vector field (force free-magnetic vector field in physics), if $B\times(\nabla\times B)=0$. Motivated by our investigations on projective an polynomial superflows, and as an important…

We construct traveling wave solutions to the 3d Euler equations by axisymmetric Beltrami fields with a non-constant proportionality factor. They form a vortex ring with nested invariant tori consisting of level sets of the proportionality…

We introduce a class of divergence-free vector fields on $\mathbb{R}^3$ obtained after a suitable localization of Beltrami fields. First, we use them as initial data to construct unique global smooth solutions of the three dimensional…

Strong Beltrami fields have long played a key role in fluid mechanics and magnetohydrodynamics. In particular, they are the kind of stationary solutions of the Euler equations where one has been able to show the existence of vortex…

We prove that bounded Beltrami fields must be symmetric if a proportionality factor depends on 2 variables in the cylindrical coordinate and admits a regular level set diffeomorphic to a cylinder or a torus.

The Morse function $f$ near a non-degenerate critical point $p$ is understood topologically, in the light of Morse's lemma. However, Morse's lemma standardizes the function $f$ itself, providing little information of how the gradient…

We show that for almost every given symmetry transformation of a Riemannian manifold there exists an eigenvector field of the curl operator, corresponding to a non-zero eigenvalue, which obeys the symmetry. More precisely, given a smooth,…

We establish a series of criteria on the existence of regular solutions for the Dirichlet problem to general degenerate Beltrami equations ${\bar{\partial}}f = \mu {\partial f}+\nu {\bar{\partial f}}$ in arbitrary Jordan domains in $\C$.

A generalized Mordell curve of degree $n \ge 3$ over $\bQ$ is the smooth projective model of the affine curve of the form $Az^2 = Bx^n + C$, where $A, B, C$ are nonzero integers. A generalized Fermat curve of signature $(n, n, n)$ with $n…

Inspired by Morrey's Problem (on rank-one convex functionals) and the Burkholder integrals (of his martingale theory) we find that the Burkholder functionals $B_p$, $p \ge 2$, are quasiconcave, when tested on deformations of identity $f\in…

Let C : y^2=f(x) be a hyperelliptic curve defined over the rationals. Let K be a number field and suppose f factors over K as a product of irreducible polynomials f=f_1 f_2...f_r. We shall define a "Selmer set" corresponding to this…

For $1<p<\infty$ we prove an $L^p$-version of the generalized Korn inequality for incompatible tensor fields $P$ in $ W^{1,\,p}_0(\operatorname{Curl}; \Omega,\mathbb{R}^{3\times3})$. More precisely, let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^3$ be a…

Let $X$ be a complex affine variety in $\mathbb{C}^N$, and let $f:\mathbb{C}^N\to \mathbb{C}$ be a polynomial function whose restriction to $X$ is nonconstant. For $g:\mathbb{C}^N \to \mathbb{C}$ a general linear function, we study the…

We show that arbitrary homeomorphic solutions to the Beltrami equations with generalized derivatives satisfy certain moduli inequalities. On this basis, we develope the theory of the boundary behavior of such solutions and prove a series of…

We characterise the boundary field line behaviour of Beltrami flows on compact, connected manifolds with vanishing first de Rham cohomology group. Namely we show that except for an at most nowhere dense subset of the boundary, on which the…

Our goal in this work is to present some function spaces on the complex plane $\C$, $X(\C)$, for which the quasiregular solutions of the Beltrami equation, $\bar\partial f (z) = \mu(z) \partial f (z)$, have first derivatives locally in…

We consider the inhomogeneous div-curl system (i.e.\ to find a vector field with prescribed div and curl) in a bounded star-shaped domain in $\mathbb{R}^3$. An explicit general solution is given in terms of classical integral operators,…
