In this expository work, we present Vishik's theorem on non-unique weak solutions to the two-dimensional Euler equations on the whole space, \[ \partial_t \omega + u \cdot \nabla \omega = f \, , \quad u = \frac{1}{2\pi}…

We give a simpler proof of Vishik's nonuniqueness Theorem for the forced 2D Euler equation in the vorticity class $L^1\cap L^p$ with $2<p<\infty$. The main simplification is an alternative construction of a smooth and compactly supported…

Whether singularities can form in fluids remains a foundational unanswered question in mathematics. This phenomenon occurs when solutions to governing equations, such as the 3D Euler equations, develop infinite gradients from smooth initial…

Inspired by the numerical evidence of a potential 3D Euler singularity \cite{luo2014potentially,luo2013potentially-2}, we prove finite time blowup of the 2D Boussinesq and 3D axisymmetric Euler equations with smooth initial data of finite…

Whether the 3D incompressible Euler equations can develop a singularity in finite time from smooth initial data is one of the most challenging problems in mathematical fluid dynamics. This work attempts to provide an affirmative answer to…

The forced 2D Euler equations exhibit non-unique solutions with vorticity in $L^p$, $p > 1$, whereas the corresponding Navier-Stokes solutions are unique. We investigate whether the inviscid limit $\nu \to 0^+$ from the forced 2D…

For a wide class of linear Hamiltonian operators we develop a general criterion that characterizes the unstable eigenvalues as the zeros of a holomorphic function given by the determinant of a finite-dimensional matrix. We apply the latter…

The nonlinear asymptotic stability of shear flows in the 2D Euler equations has traditionally been linked to inviscid damping in the periodic setting. Since Gevrey regularity is required to suppress the ``echo'' phenomenon, asymptotic…

We consider the hydrodynamics of an incompressible fluid on a 2D periodic domain. There exists a family of stationary solutions with vorticity given by $\Omega^*=\alpha\cos (\mathbf{p} \cdot \mathbf{x} )+\beta \sin (\mathbf{p} \cdot…

For the $2D$ Euler equation in vorticity formulation, we construct localized smooth solutions whose critical Sobolev norms become large in a short period of time, and solutions which initially belong to $L^\infty \cap H^1$ but escapes $H^1$…
