Abstract: We show that the incompressible Euler equations on mathbbR2 are not locally well-posed in the sense of Hadamard in the Besov space Binfty,11. Our approach relies on the technique of Lagrangian deformations of Bourgain and Li. We show that the assumption that the data-to-solution map is continuous in Binfty,11 leads to a contradiction with a well-posedness result in W1,p of Kato and Ponce.


The authors study the two-dimensional Euler equations for flows of incompressible fluid in the critical spaces \(C^1(\mathbb R^2)\) and \(B^1_{\infty,1}(\mathbb R^2)\). The main result is that the corresponding Cauchy problems are ill-posed in the sense of Hadamard. This is proved by showing a contradiction with a result of \textit{T. Kato} and \textit{G. Ponce} [Rev. Mat. Iberoam. 2, No. 1--2, 73--88 (1986; Zbl 0615.35078)]. Related results are contained in recent preprints by \textit{T. M. Elgindi} and \textit{N. Masmoudi} [``Ill-posedness results in critical spaces for some equations arising in hydrodynamics, Preprint, \url{arXiv:1405.2478}] and by \textit{J. Bourgain} and \textit{D. Li} [Geom. Funct. Anal. 25, No. 1, 1--86 (2015; Zbl 1480.35316)], but the methods used are quite different.
