Exact solutions of fluid equations on a sphere

arXiv:2505.03430

Abstract

Exact solutions of both the Navier-Stokes and Euler equations are found on the surface of a sphere. Under the assumption of a vanishing convection term, the flow of two oppositely rotating point vortices at the poles turns out to be the unique common solution.
