A stochastic Euler equation is proposed, describing the motion of a particle density, forced by the random action of virtual photons in vacuum. After time averaging, the Euler equation is reduced to the Reynolds equation, well studied in…

We show that the Euler system is not exactly controllable by a finite-dimensional external force. The proof is based on the comparison of the Kolmogorov epsilon-entropy for Holder spaces and for the class of functions that can be obtained…

The Madelung equations are two equations that are equivalent to the one-body time-dependent Schroedinger equation. In this paper, the Madelung equation, whose gradient is an Euler equation, is refined by introducing interpretations of…
