Instability of two-dimensional Taylor-Green Vortices
Gonzalo Cao-Labora, Maria Colombo, Michele Dolce +1
For a wide class of linear Hamiltonian operators we develop a general criterion that characterizes the unstable eigenvalues as the zeros of a holomorphic function given by the dete…
Lyapunov exponents, entropy and mixing for DiPerna-Lions flows
Elia Brué, Maria Colombo, Carl Johan Peter Johansson
The main goal of this work is to establish an asymptotic form of Bressan's mixing conjecture. To this end, we develop an ergodic-theoretic framework for incompressible DiPerna-Lion…
Long-wave instability of periodic shear flows for the 2D Navier-Stokes equations
Maria Colombo, Michele Dolce, Riccardo Montalto +1
In 1959, Kolmogorov proposed to study the instability of the shear flow in the vanishing viscosity regime in tori . This question was…
Vanishing viscosity non-unique solutions to the forced 2D Euler Equations
Dallas Albritton, Maria Colombo, Giulia Mescolini
The forced 2D Euler equations exhibit non-unique solutions with vorticity in , , whereas the corresponding Navier-Stokes solutions are unique. We investigate whether th…
