We construct small-amplitude periodic water waves with multiple critical layers. In addition to waves with arbitrarily many critical layers and a single crest in each period, two-dimensional sets of waves with several crests and troughs in…
We consider gravity water waves in two space dimensions, with finite or infinite depth. Assuming some uniform scale invariant Sobolev bounds for the solutions, we prove local energy decay (Morawetz) estimates globally in time. Our result is…
Steady linear gravity waves of small amplitude travelling on a current of constant vorticity are found. For negative vorticity we show the appearance of internal waves and vortices, wherein the particle trajectories are not any more closed…
Recently, Banner et al. (2014) highlighted a new fundamental property of open ocean wave groups, the so-called crest slowdown. For linear narrowband waves, this is related to the geometric and dynamical phase velocities $U_d$ and $U_g$…
This article is concerned with the infinite depth water wave equation in two space dimensions. We consider this problem expressed in position-velocity potential holomorphic coordinates. Viewing this problem as a quasilinear dispersive…
Here to represent the propagation of waves I attempted to describe them separately in space and time domains. The time and space wave equations are obtained and investigated, and formulas for the wave propagation are expressed. I also tried…
This paper is devoted to presenting new interior regularity criteria in terms of one velocity component for weak solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations in three dimensions. It is shown that the velocity is regular near a point $z$ if its…
The dynamics of solitary gravity-capillary water waves propagating on the surface of a three-dimensional fluid domain is studied numerically. In order to accurately compute complex time dependent solutions, we simplify the full potential…
In this paper, we study two-dimensional steady solitary gravity waves propagating along the surface of a fluid of finite depth. In particular, we can deal with general vorticity distributions and overhanging wave profiles. By conformal…
Plane waves are regarded as the general solution of the wave equation. However the plane wave expansion of standing waves by means of complex phasors leads to a theory in which the time coordinate does not receive the same treatment as the…
We consider two-dimensional steady periodic gravity waves on water of finite depth with a prescribed but arbitrary vorticity distribution. The water surface is allowed to be overhanging and no assumptions regarding the absence of stagnation…
We consider the two-dimensional (2D) flow in a flat free-slip surface that bounds a three-dimensional (3D) volume in which the flow is turbulent. The equations of motion for the two-dimensional flow in the surface are neither compressible…
We establish new Carleman estimates for the wave equation, which we then apply to derive novel observability inequalities for a general class of linear wave equations. The main features of these inequalities are that (a) they apply to a…
In this paper, we generalize the usual notions of waves, fronts and propagation speeds in a very general setting. These new notions, which cover all classical situations, involve uniform limits, with respect to the geodesic distance, to a…
We consider one-dimensional model of the interaction between surface and the internal gravity water waves. The internal wave is modeled by its basic form: a non-dispersive field with a horizontal current that is uniform over all depth,…
We classify 2+1 dimensional integrable systems with nonlocality of the intermediate long wave type. Links to the 2+1 dimensional waterbag system are established. Dimensional reductions of integrable systems constructed in this paper provide…
In this article we initiate the study of 1+ 2 dimensional wave maps on a curved spacetime in the low regularity setting. Our main result asserts that in this context the wave maps equation is locally well-posed at almost critical…
We study the exact controllability for spatially periodic water waves with surface tension, by localized exterior pressures applied to free surfaces. We prove that in any dimension, the exact controllability holds within arbitrarily short…
For two-dimensional steady pure-gravity water waves with a unidirectional flow of constant favourable vorticity, we prove an explicit bound on the amplitude of the wave, which decays to zero as the vorticity tends to infinity. Notably, our…
A formalism for describing an all-sky map of the polarization of the cosmic microwave background is presented. The polarization pattern on the sky can be decomposed into two geometrically distinct components. One of these components is not…
