We prove that any uniformly rotating solution of the 2D incompressible Euler equation with compactly supported vorticity $\omega$ must be radially symmetric whenever its angular velocity satisfies $\Omega \in (-\infty,\inf \omega / 2] \cup…

A large class of multidimensional nonlinear Schroedinger equations admit localized nonradial standing wave solutions that carry nonzero intrinsic angular momentum. Here we provide evidence that certain of these spinning excitations are…
We examine the Euler equations within a simply-connected bounded domain. The dynamics of a single point vortex are governed by a Hamiltonian system, with most of its energy levels corresponding to time-periodic motion. We show that for the…
This article studies point-vortex models for the Euler and surface quasi-geostrophic equations. In the case of an inviscid fluid with planar motion, the point-vortex model gives account of dynamics where the vorticity profile is sharply…
