Abstract: We consider the problem of collisions of vortex filaments for a model introduced by Klein, Majda and Damodaran, and Zakharov to describe the interaction of almost parallel vortex filaments in three-dimensional fluids. Since the results of Crow examples of collisions are searched as perturbations of antiparallel translating pairs of filaments, with initial perturbations related to the unstable mode of the linearized problem; most results are numerical calculations. In this article we first consider a related model for the evolution of pairs of filaments and we display another type of initial perturbation leading to collision in finite time. Moreover we give numerical evidence that it also leads to collision through the initial model. We finally study the self-similar solutions of the model.

Review text

Based on the authors' abstract: The problem of solutions of vortex filaments for a model introduced by \textit{R. Klein} et al. [J. Fluid Mech. 288, 201--248 (1995; Zbl 0846.76015)] and \textit{V. E. Zakharov} [``Wave collapse, Sov. Phys. Usp. 31, No. 7, 672--674 (1988); Lect. Notes Phys. 536, 369--385 (1999; Zbl 0947.76011)] to describe the interaction of almost parallel vortex filaments in three-dimensional fluids are considered. Since the results of \textit{S. C. Crow} [``Stability theory for a pair of trailing vortices, AIAA J. 8, No. 12, 2172--2179 (1970; \url{doi:10.2514/3.6083})], examples of collisions are searched as perturbations of antiparallel translating pairs of filaments, with initial perturbations related to the unstable mode of the linearized problem; most results are numerical calculations. In this article, the authors consider a related model for the evolution of pairs of filaments, and they display another type of initial perturbation leading to collision in finite time. The authors give numerical evidence that it also leads to collision through the initial model.
