    On the energy of inviscid singular flows

    It is known that the energy of a weak solution to the Euler equation is conserved if it is slightly more regular than the Besov space B3,∞1/3B^{1/3}_{3,\infty}. When the singular set of the solution is (or belongs to) a smooth manifold, we derive various LpL^p-space regularity criteria dimensionally equivalent to the critical one. In particular, if the singular set is a hypersurface the energy of uu is conserved provided the one sided non-tangential limits to the surface exist and the non-tangential maximal function is L3L^3 integrable, while the maximal function of the pressure is L3/2L^{3/2} integrable. The results directly apply to prove energy conservation of the classical vortex sheets in both 2D and 3D at least in those cases where the energy is finite.Comment: 19 page

    In this note we give a description of the continuous spectrum of the linearized Euler equations in three dimensions. Namely, for all but countably many times t∈Rt\in \R, the continuous spectrum of the evolution operator GtG_t is given by a solid annulus with radii etμe^{t\mu} and etMe^{t M}, where μ\mu and MM are the smallest and largest, respectively, Lyapunov exponents of the corresponding bicharacteristic-amplitude system of ODEs

    The essential spectrum of advective equations

    A description of the essential spectrum is given for a general class of linear advective PDE with pseudodifferential bounded perturbation. We prove that every point in the Sacker-Sell spectrum of the corresponding bicharacteristic-amplitude system exponentiates into the spectrum of PDE. Exact spectral pictures are found in various cases. Applications to instability are presented.Comment: This replaces the earlier version of the paper.
