Existence, uniqueness and stability of steady vortex rings of small cross-section

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: This paper is concerned with steady vortex rings in an ideal fluid of uniform density, which are special global solutions of the three-dimensional incompressible Euler equation. We systematically establish the existence, uniqueness and nonlinear stability of steady vortex rings of small cross-section for which the potential vorticity is constant throughout the core. The proof is based on a combination of the Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction argument, the local Pohozaev identity technique and the variational method.
