We give an exact quantitative solution for the motion of three vortices of any strength, which Poincar\'e showed to be integrable. The absolute motion of one vortex is generally biperiodic: in uniformly rotating axes, the motion is…
We offer a new method of reduction for a system of point vortices on a plane and a sphere. This method is similar to the classical node elimination procedure. However, as applied to the vortex dynamics, it requires substantial modification.…

In a system of point vortices, there exist regions of stability around each vortex, even if the system is chaotic. These regions are usually called stability islands and they have a morphology that is hard to characterise. We study and…
Thermodynamical stability of fluid spheres is studied in the presence of a cosmological constant, both in the Newtonian limit, as well as in General Relativity. In all cases, an increase of the cosmological constant tends to stabilize the…
