We study a family of approximations to Euler's equation depending on two parameters $\varepsilon,η\ge 0$. When $\varepsilon=η=0$ we have Euler's equation and when both are positive we have instances of the class of integro-differential equations called EPDiff in imaging science. These are all geodesic equations on either the full diffeomorphism group $\operatorname{Diff}_{H^\infty}(\mathbb R^n)$ or, if $\varepsilon = 0$, its volume preserving subgroup. They are defined by the right invariant metric induced by the norm on vector fields given by $$ \|v\|_{\varepsilon,η} = \int_{\mathbb R^n} <L_{\varepsilon,η} v, v> dx $$ where $L_{\varepsilon,η} = (I-\tfrac{η^2}{p} \triangle)^p \circ (I-\tfrac1{\varepsilon^2} \nabla \circ ÷)$. All geodesic equations are locally well-posed, and the $L_{\varepsilon,η}$-equation admits solutions for all time if $η>0$ and $p\ge (n+3)/2$. We tie together solutions of all these equations by estimates which, however, are only local in time. This approach leads to a new notion of momentum which is transported by the flow and serves as a generalization of vorticity. We also discuss how delta distribution momenta lead to "vortex-solitons", also called "landmarks" in imaging science, and to new numeric approximations to fluids.
This article is a survey on the local well-posedness problem for the general EPDiff equation. The main contribution concerns recent results on local existence of the geodesics on $\mathrm{Diff}(\mathbb{T}^{d})$ and $\mathrm{Diff}(\mathbb{R}^{d})$ when the inertia operator is a non-local Fourier multiplier.
In this article we study the class of right-invariant, fractional order Sobolev-type metrics on groups of diffeomorphisms of a compact manifold M. Our main result concerns well-posedness properties for the corresponding Euler-Arnold equations, also called the EPDiff equations, which are of importance in mathematical physics and in the field of shape analysis and template registration. Depending on the order of the metric, we will prove both local and global well-posedness results for these equations. As a result of our analysis we will also obtain new commutator estimates for elliptic pseudo-d…
We propose in this work new systems of equations which we call $p$-Euler equations and $p$-Navier-Stokes equations. $p$-Euler equations are derived as the Euler-Lagrange equations for the action represented by the Benamou-Brenier characterization of Wasserstein-$p$ distances, with incompressibility constraint. $p$-Euler equations have similar structures with the usual Euler equations but the `momentum' is the signed ($p-1$)-th power of the velocity. In the 2D case, the $p$-Euler equations have streamfunction-vorticity formulation, where the vorticity is given by the $p$-Laplacian of the stream…
We propose a two-dimensional generalization of Constantin-Lax-Majda model [2]. Some results about singular solutions are given. This model might be the first step toward the singular solutions of the Euler equations. Along the same line (vorticity formulation), we present some further model equations. They possibly models various aspects of difficulties related with the singular solutions of the Euler and Navier-Stokes equations. We also make some discussions on the possible connection between turbulence and the singular solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations.
In this paper, from an investigation of a symmetric hyperbolic system, a prior derivation of the logarithm equation of state is provided. Through a diffeomorphism transforming the classical Euler equations to the symmetric hyperbolic system, we show that the logarithm pressure co-exists with existing barotropic equations of state without applying any physical laws. In this connection, we also establish a local existence of classical solutions for the relativistic Euler equations with the logarithm equation of state.
A compactness framework is formulated for the incompressible limit of approximate solutions with weak uniform bounds with respect to the adiabatic exponent for the steady Euler equations for compressible fluids in any dimension. One of our main observations is that the compactness can be achieved by using only natural weak estimates for the mass conservation and the vorticity. Another observation is that the incompressibility of the limit for the homentropic Euler flow is directly from the continuity equation, while the incompresibility of the limit for the full Euler flow is from a combinatio…
We proposed rigorous definitions of Radon measure solutions for boundary value problems of steady compressible Euler equations which modeling hypersonic-limit inviscid flows passing two-dimensional ramps, and their interactions with still gas and pressureless jets. We proved the Newton-Busemann pressure law of drags of body in hypersonic flow, and constructed various physically interesting measure solutions with density containing Dirac measures supported on curves, also exhibited examples of blow up of certain measure solutions. This established a mathematical foundation for applications in e…
We prove the existence of non-negative measure- and $H^{-1}$-valued vorticity solutions to the stochastic 2D Euler equations with transport vorticity noise, starting from any non-negative vortex sheet. This extends the result by Delort (J.Amer.Math.Soc. 1991) to the stochastic case.
We study the Euler-Poincaré equations that are the regularized Euler equations derived from the Euler-Poincaré framework. It is noteworthy to remark that the Euler-Poincaré equations are a generalization of two well-known regularizations, the vortex blob method and the Euler-$α$ equations. We show the global existence of a unique weak solution for the two-dimensional (2D) Euler-Poincaré equations with the initial vorticity in the space of Radon measure. This is a remarkable feature of these equations since the existence of weak solutions with the Radon measure initial vorticity has not been es…
We consider the limit $α\to0$ for the $α$-Euler equations in a two-dimensional bounded domain with Dirichlet boundary conditions. Assuming that the vorticity is bounded in $L^p$, we prove the existence of a global solution and we show the convergence towards a solution of the incompressible Euler equation with $L^p$ vorticity. The domain can be multiply-connected. We also discuss the case of the second grade fluid when both $α$ and $ν$ go to 0.
By introducing a new averaged quantity with a fast decay weight to perform Sideris's argument (Commun Math Phys, 1985) developed for the Euler Equations, we extend the formation of singularities of classical solution to the 3D Euler Equations established in Sideris (1985) and Makino et al. (Jpn J Appl Math, 1986) for the initial data with compactly supported disturbances to the spherically symmetric solution with general initial data in Sobolev space. Moreover, we also prove the formation of singularities of the spherically symmetric solutions to the 3D Euler-Poisson Equations, but remove the …
After reformulate the incompressible Euler-$α$ equations in 3D smooth domain with Drichlet data, we obtain the unique classical solutions to Euler-$α$ equations exist in uniform time interval independent of $α$. We also show the solution of the Euler-$α$ converge to the corresponding solution of Euler equation in $L^2$ in space, uniformly in time. In the sequel, it follows that the $H^s$ $(s>\frac{n}{2}+1)$ solutions of Euler-$α$ equations exist in any fixed sub-interval of the maximum existent interval for the Euler equations provided that initial is regular enough and $α$ is small sufficient…
In this paper we study the weighted Gevrey class regularity of Euler equation in the whole space R 3. We first establish the local existence of Euler equation in weighted Sobolev space, then obtain the weighted Gevrey regularity of Euler equation. We will use the weighted Sobolev-Gevrey space method to obtain the results of Gevrey regularity of Euler equation, and the use of the property of singular operator in the estimate of the pressure term is the improvement of our work.
The aim of this manuscript is to study the influence of the vorticity on the existence time in fluid systems for which global smoothness and decay is known in the case of small irrotational data. We focus on two examples: the Euler-Korteweg system and the two-fluid Euler Maxwell system. We prove that the lower bound of the lifespan of these systems is no less than the inverse of the $H^s$ $(s>5/2)$ norm of the rotational part of the initial velocity. Our approach is based on energy estimates and the fast time decay results of global solutions to these systems with small irrotational initial da…
We give sufficient conditions on the regularity of solutions to the inhomogeneous incompressible Euler and the compressible isentropic Euler systems in order for the energy to be conserved. Our strategy relies on commutator estimates similar to those employed by P. Constantin et al. for the homogeneous incompressible Euler equations.
This paper construct a family of explicit self-similar blowup axisymmetric solutions for the 3D incompressible Euler equations in R^3. Those singular solutions admit infinite energy.
The study of spherically symmetric motion is important for the theory of explosion waves. In this paper, we construct rigorously self-similar solutions to the Riemann problem of the spherically symmetric Euler equations for general equations of state. We used the assumption of self-similarity to reduce the spherically symmetric Euler equations to a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations, from which we obtain detailed structures of solutions besides their existence.
We describe a method to construct smooth and compactly supported solutions of 3D incompressible Euler equations and related models. The method is based on localizable Grad-Shafranov equations and is inspired by the recent result \cite{gav}.
In this paper, we develop an abstract framework to establish ill-posedness in the sense of Hadamard for some nonlocal PDEs displaying unbounded unstable spectra. We apply it to prove the ill-posedness for the hydrostatic Euler equations as well as for the kinetic incompressible Euler equations and the Vlasov-Dirac-Benney system.
We construct spherically symmetric solutions to the Einstein-Euler equations, which contains a positive cosmological constant, say, the Einstein-Euler-de Sitter equations. We assume a realistic barotropic equation of state. Equilibria of the spherically symmetric Einstein-Euler-de Sitter equations are given by the Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff-de Sitter equation. We can construct solutions near time periodic linearized solutions around the equilibrium. The Cauchy problem around the equilibrium can be solved. This work can be considered as a trial of the generalization of the previous work on the …
