We study the time evolution of an incompressible fluid with axial symmetry without swirl, assuming initial data such that the initial vorticity is very concentrated inside $N$ small disjoint rings of thickness $\varepsilon$ and vorticity…
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…
We report recent results from a high resolution numerical study of fluid particles transported by a fully developed turbulent flow. Single particle trajectories were followed for a time range spanning more than three decades, from less than…
We consider graphical solutions to mean curvature flow and obtain a stability result for homothetically expanding solutions coming out of cones of positive mean curvature: If another solution is initially close to the cone at infinity, then…
We consider a family of approximations to the Euler equations obtained by adding $(-\Delta)^{-\alpha/2}$ to the non-locality in the Biot-Savart kernel together with a mollification (with parameter $\varepsilon$). We consider the evolution…
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…
In this paper, we consider the uniqueness of solutions to the 3d Navier-Stokes equations with initial vorticity given by $\omega_0 = \alpha e_z \delta_{x = y = 0}$, where $\delta_{x=y= 0}$ is the one dimensional Hausdorff measure of an…
We prove a comparison theorem for the isoperimetric profiles of simple closed curves evolving by the normalized curve shortening flow: If the isoperimetric profile of the region enclosed by the initial curve is greater than that of some…
The role of instability in the growth of a 2D, temporally evolving, `turbulent' free shear layer is analyzed using vortex-gas simulations that condense all dynamics into the kinematics of the Biot-Savart relation. The initial evolution of…
We consider the linear stability to axisymmetric perturbations of the family of inviscid vortex rings discovered by Norbury (1973). Since these vortex rings are obtained as solutions to a free-boundary problem, their stability analysis is…
We investigate the behaviour of vertices and inflexions on 1-parameter families of curves on smooth surfaces in the 3-space, which include a singular member. In particular, we discuss the context where the curves evolve as sections of a…
It is shown, that any sufficiently smooth periodic solution of the self-focusing Nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation can be approximated by periodic finite-gap ones with an arbitrary small error. As a corollary an analogous result for the…
We study the topology of quasiperiodic solutions of the vortex filament equation in a neighborhood of multiply covered circles. We construct these solutions by means of a sequence of isoperiodic deformations, at each step of which a real…
In this paper, the parallel transport frames over non-lightlike curves in Minkowski 3-space are introduced. Evolution equations of these frames with respect to arc length and time are calculated over the space of these curves. Then the…
In this paper we study the singularity formation for the geometric flow of complex curves $$z_t = -z_{xxx} + \frac{3}{2}\o z_{x} z_{xx}^2,$$ that was derived [R. E. Goldstein and D. M. Petrich, {\em Phys. Rev. Lett.}, 69 (1992), pp.…
This paper studies the Cauchy problem for a helical vortex filament evolving by the 3D incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. We prove global-in-time well-posedness and smoothing of solutions with initial vorticity concentrated on a helix.…
We investigate the evolution of open curves with fixed endpoints under the curve shortening flow, which evolves curves in proportion to their curvature. Using a distance comparison of Huisken, we determine the long-term behavior of open…
In this paper, we study the evolution of the vortex filament equation (VFE), $$\mathbf X_t = \mathbf X_s \wedge \mathbf X_{ss},$$ with $\mathbf X(s, 0)$ being a regular planar polygon. Using algebraic techniques, supported by full numerical…
We represent the outermost shear interface of an eddy by a circular vortex sheet in two dimensions, and provide a new proof of linear instability via the Birkhoff-Rott equation. Like planar vortex sheets, circular sheets are found to be…
When considering flows in biological membranes, they are usually treated as flat, though more often than not, they are curved surfaces, even extremely curved, as in the case of the endoplasmic reticulum. Here, we study the topological…
