We study a special kind of singular vorticities in ideal 2D fluids that combine features of point vortices and vortex sheets, namely pointed vortex loops. We focus on the coadjoint orbits of the area-preserving diffeomorphism group of…
This paper studies the geometry of the group of all co-Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of a compact cosymplectic manifold $(M, \omega, \eta)$. The fix-point theory for co-Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms is studied, and we use Arnold's conjecture to…
