We investigate the formation of singularities in a self-similar form of regular solutions of the Localized Induction Approximation (also referred as to the binormal flow). This equation appears as an approximation model for the self-induced…
The theory describing the evolution of inhomogeneous vortex tangle at zero temperature is developed on the bases of kinetics of merging and splitting vortex loops. Vortex loops composing the vortex tangle can move as a whole with some drift…

A classical problem for the two-dimensional Euler flow for an incompressible fluid confined to a smooth domain. is that of finding regular solutions with highly concentrated vorticities around $N$ moving {\em vortices}. The formal dynamic…
We consider the two-dimensional incompressible Euler equations. We construct vortex patches with smooth boundary on $T^2$ and $R^2$ whose perimeter grows with time. More precisely, for any constant $M > 0$, we construct a vortex patch in…
We prove short time regularity of suitable weak solutions of 3D incompressible Navier-Stokes equations near a point where the initial data is locally in $L^3$. The result is applied to the regularity problems of solutions with uniformly…
This article concerns the water wave problem in a three-dimensional domain of infinite depth and examines the modulational regime for weakly nonlinear wavetrains. We use the method of normal form transformations near the equilibrium state…
The flow of a viscous fluid is perturbed by its internal friction which generates heat and leads to a small temperature change. This does not occur for an ideal fluid. We would like to resolve this picture as a function of the dynamical…
We consider vortex patch solutions of the incompressible Euler equations in the plane. It is shown that the winding number around the origin for most particles in the patch grows linearly in time when the initial patch is close to a disk…
We study vortex states in a 3d random-field XY model of up to one billion lattice spins. Starting with random spin orientations, the sample freezes into the vortex-glass state with a stretched-exponential decay of spin correlations, having…
We study the time evolution of an incompressible Euler fluid with planar symmetry when the vorticity is initially concentrated in small disks. We discuss how long this concentration persists, showing that in some cases this happens for…
The incompressible three-dimensional Euler equations develop very thin pancake-like regions of increasing vorticity. These regions evolve with the scaling $\omega_{max}\sim\ell^{-2/3}$ between the vorticity maximum and the pancake…
For a class of evolution equations that possibly have only local solutions, we introduce a stochastic component that ensures that the solutions of the corresponding stochastically perturbed equations are global. The class of partial…
Three-dimensional sand ripples can be observed under steady liquid flows in both nature and industry. Some examples are the ripples observed on the bed of rivers and in petroleum pipelines conveying sand. Although of importance, the…
