The clebsch potential approach to fluid lagrangians is developed in order to establish contact with other approaches to fluids. Three variants of the perfect fluid approach are looked at. The first is an explicit linear lagrangian…
Einstein's equations of General Relativity form a highly nonlinear system, so most exact solutions rely on symmetry assumptions. Spherically symmetric spacetimes have been particularly important, providing a tractable yet physically rich…
We consider the field theory that defines a perfect incompressible 2D fluid. One distinctive property of this system is that the quadratic action for fluctuations around the ground state features neither mass nor gradient term. Quantum…
We review the Eulerian description of hidrodynamics using Seliger-Whitham's formalism (in classical case) and Schutz's formalism (in relativistic case). In these formalisms, the velocity field of a perfect fluid is described by scalar…
On the basis of gauge principle in the field theory, a new variational formulation is presented for flows of an ideal fluid. The fluid is defined thermodynamically by mass density and entropy density, and its flow fields are characterized…

The two-dimensional (2-D) Euler equations of a perfect fluid possess a beautiful geometric description: they are reduced geodesic equations on the infinite-dimensional Lie group of symplectomorphims with respect to a right-invariant…
We show that volume-preserving diffomorphisms and the chemical shift symmetry defining relativistic lagrangian ideal fluid dynamics can be derived as an emerging symmetry when ergodicity is assumed to apply locally in a way that is…
We show that combinations of (in general, non-linear) 2- and 3-form fields analogous to the Maxwell (1-form) field, completely describe perfect fluids, including the rotating ones. In the non-rotating case, the 2-form field in sufficient,…
A finite-dimensional su($N$) Lie algebra equation is discussed that in the infinite $N$ limit (giving the area preserving diffeomorphism group) tends to the two-dimensional, inviscid vorticity equation on the torus. The equation is…
We consider the evolution of an incompressible two-dimensional perfect fluid as the boundary of its domain is deformed in a prescribed fashion. The flow is taken to be initially steady, and the boundary deformation is assumed to be slow…
We study a 2D potential flow of an ideal fluid with a free surface with decaying conditions at infinity. By using the conformal variables approach, we study a particular solution of Euler equations having a pair of square-root branch points…
We introduce a rotation invariant short distance cut-off in the theory of an ideal fluid in three space dimensions, by requiring momenta to take values in a sphere. This leads to an algebra of functions in position space is non-commutative.…
We consider a general approach to the theory of continuous media starting from Lagrangian formalism. This formalism which uses the trajectories if constituents of media is very convenient for taking into account different types of…
We develop the Lagrangian perturbation theory in the general relativistic cosmology, which enables us to take into account the vortical effect of the dust matter. Under the Lagrangian representation of the fluid flow, the propagation…
We extend the effective theory approach to the ideal fluid limit where the polarization of the fluid is non-zero. After describing and motivating the equations of motion, we expand them around the hydrostatic limit, obtaining the sound wave…
Relativistic hydrodynamics of an isentropic fluid in a gravitational field is considered as the particular example from the family of Lagrangian hydrodynamic-type systems which possess an infinite set of integrals of motion due to the…
We analyze a hydrodynamical model of a polar fluid in (3+1)-dimensional spacetime. We explore a spacetime symmetry -- volume preserving diffeomorphisms -- to construct an effective description of this fluid in terms of a topological BF…

We address the question whether a singularity in a three-dimensional incompressible inviscid fluid flow can occur in finite time. Analytical considerations and numerical simulations suggest high-symmetry flows being a promising candidate…
