The Coriolis effect-induced and ill-posedness in the 3D rotating Euler equations

arXiv:2601.15922

Abstract

In this paper, we establish the ill-posedness of the 3D rotating Euler equations in endpoint and -based spaces. More precisely, our aim is two fold: (1) we prove an endpoint ill-posedness in any of the velocity formulation for the 3D rotating Euler equations. To the best of our knowledge, our work is the first one addressing the ill-posedness issue on the rotating Euler equations in any -based framework without the vorticity formulation. These are in stark contrast to existing well-posedness results for the classical Euler equations in endpoint Besov spaces and thus we identify a structural distinction between the 3D rotating and classical Euler equations. (2) we prove an endpoint ill-posedness in any of the vorticity formulation for the 3D rotating Euler equations, which seems to be the first ill-posedness result in -type spaces although the currently-known results on the well-posedness were given in the Besov space for the velocity equation and in the Sobolev space for the vorticity equation. The Coriolis effect-induced and ill-posedness phenomenon for the 3D rotating Euler equations, which may be the first work that precisely identifies a rigorous distinction in the theory of well-posedness on the 3D rotating and classical Euler equations.
