Large time behavior for vortex evolution in the half-plane
In this article we study the long-time behavior of incompressible ideal flow
in a half plane from the point of view of vortex scattering. Our main result is
that certain asymptotic states for half-plane vortex dynamics decompose
naturally into a nonlinear superposition of soliton-like states. Our approach
is to combine techniques developed in the study of vortex confinement with weak
convergence tools in order to study the asymptotic behavior of a self-similar
rescaling of a solution of the incompressible 2D Euler equations on a half
plane with compactly supported, nonnegative initial vorticity.Comment: 30 pages, no figure

The expectations hypothesis of the term structure: some empirical evidence for Portugal
The purpose of this paper is to test the (rational) expectations hypothesis of the term structure of interest rates using Portuguese data for the interbank money market. The results obtained support only a very weak, long-run or "asymptotic" version of the hypothesis, and broadly agree with previous evidence for other countries.
The empirical evidence supports the cointegration of Portuguese rates and the "puzzle" well known in the literature: although its forecasts of future short-term rates are in the correct direction, the spread between longer and shorter rates fails to forecast future longer rates. In the single equation framework, the implications of the hypothesis in terms of the predictive ability of the spread are also clearly rejected
Serfati solutions to the 2D Euler equations on exterior domains
We prove existence and uniqueness of a weak solution to the incompressible 2D
Euler equations in the exterior of a bounded smooth obstacle when the initial
data is a bounded divergence-free velocity field having bounded scalar curl.
This work completes and extends the ideas outlined by P. Serfati for the same
problem in the whole-plane case. With non-decaying vorticity, the Biot-Savart
integral does not converge, and thus velocity cannot be reconstructed from
vorticity in a straightforward way. The key to circumventing this difficulty is
the use of the Serfati identity, which is based on the Biot-Savart integral,
but holds in more general settings.Comment: 50 page
