In this paper, we are interested in the long-time behaviour of stochastic systems of n interacting vortices: the position in R2 of each vortex evolves according to a Brownian motion and a drift summing the influences of the other vortices…
Quantum droplets may form out of a gaseous Bose-Einstein condensate, stabilized by quantum fluctuations beyond mean field. We show that multiple singly-quantized vortices may form in these droplets at moderate angular momenta in two…
Small heavy particles cannot get attracted into a region of closed streamlines in a non-accelerating frame (Sapsis & Haller 2010). In a rotating system, however, particles can get trapped (Angilella 2010) near vortices. We perform numerical…
In our previous papers we proposed a continuum model for the dynamics of the systems of self-propelling particles with conservative kinematic constraints on the velocities. We have determined a class of stationary solutions of this…
The main goal of this paper is to explore the leapfrogging phenomenon in the inviscid planar flows. We show for 2d Euler equations that under suitable constraints, four concentrated vortex patches leapfrog for all time. When observed from a…
The aim of these notes is to present in a comprehensive and relatively self-contained way some recent developments in the mathematical analysis of two-dimensional viscous flows. We consider the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in the…

We study the motion of an incompressible, inviscid two-dimensional fluid in a rotating frame of reference. There the fluid experiences a Coriolis force, which we assume to be linearly dependent on one of the coordinates. This is a common…
