Singularity formations for a surface wave model

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: In this paper we study the Burgers equation with a nonlocal term of the form Hu where H is the Hilbert transform. This system has been considered as a quadratic approximation for the dynamics of a free boundary of a vortex patch. We prove blow up in finite time for a large class of initial data with finite energy. Considering a more general nonlocal term, of the form LambdaalphaHu for 0<alpha<1, finite time singularity formation is also shown.
