We describe the linear and nonlinear stability and instability of certain symmetric configurations of point vortices on the sphere forming relative equilibria. These configurations consist of one or two rings, and a ring with one or two…
The complex interactions of localized vortices with waves is investigated using a model of point vortices in the presence of a transverse or longitudinal wave. This simple model shows a rich dynamical behavior including oscillations of a…
In the present paper a description of a problem of point vortices on a plane and a sphere in the "internal" variables is discussed. The hamiltonian equations of motion of vortices on a plane are built on the Lie-Poisson algebras, and in the…
Vortices are localized planar structures that attain topological stability and can be used to describe collective behavior in a diversity of situations of current interest in nonlinear science. In high energy physics, vortices engender…
The formation of quantized vortices is a unifying feature of quantum mechanical systems, making it a premier means for fundamental and comparative studies of different quantum fluids. Being excited states of motion, vortices are normally…
The thermodynamic equilibrium conditions for compact structures composed by mass varying particles are discussed assuming that the so-called dynamical mass behaves like an additional extensive thermodynamic degree of freedom. It then…
We investigate the dynamics of $N$ point vortices in the plane, in the limit of large $N$. We consider {\em relative equilibria}, which are rigidly rotating lattice-like configurations of vortices. These configurations were observed in…
This paper concerns the investigation of the stability properties of relative equilibria which are rigidly rotating vortex configurations sometimes called vortex crystals, in the N-vortex problem. Such a configurations can be characterized…
Numerical simulations show that planetesimal systems with unevenly distributed masses may actually be more stable than those where all the bodies are of roughly equal size.
We present three-dimensional numerical simulations of the interaction of a circular-orbit planet with a protoplanetary disk. We calculate the flow pattern, the accretion rate, and torques on the planet. We consider planet masses ranging…
We study systems formed of 2N point vortices on a sphere with N vortices of strength +1 and N vortices of strength -1. In this case, the Hamiltonian is conserved by the symmetry which exchanges the positive vortices with the negative…
The system of four point vortices in the plane has relative equilibria that behave as composite particles, in the case where three of the vortices have strength $-\Gamma/3$ and one of the vortices has strength $\Gamma$. These relative…
We study the dynamics of $N$ point vortices on a rotating sphere. The Hamiltonian system becomes infinite dimensional due to the non-uniform background vorticity coming from the Coriolis force. We prove that a relative equilibrium formed of…
Systems whose potential energies consists of pieces that scale as r^-2 together with pieces that scale as r^2, show no violent relaxation to Virial equilibrium but may pulsate at considerable amplitude for ever. Despite this pulsation these…
Quantum vortices play an important role in the physics of two-dimensional quantum many-body systems, though they usually are understood in the single-particle framework like the mean-field approach. Inspired by the study on the relations…
Turbulence in classical fluids is characterized by persistent structures that emerge from the chaotic landscape. We investigate the analogous process in fully kinetic plasma turbulence by using high-resolution, direct numerical simulations…
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…
We give a method to determine relative periodic orbits in point vortex systems: it consists mainly into perform a symplectic reduction on a fixed point submanifold in order to obtain a two-dimensional reduced phase space. The method is…
The motion of incompressible and ideal fluids is studied in the plane. The stability in $L^1$ of circular vortex patches is established among the class of all bounded vortex patches of equal strength without any restriction on the size of…
We present a model for the formation of relativistic vortices (strings) at a quench, and calculate their density and correlations. The significance of these to early universe and condensed-matter physics is discussed.
