This talk reviews recent results concerning the inviscid limit for the 2D Euler equations with unbounded vorticity. In particular, by using techniques from the theory of transport equation with no smooth vector fields, we show that the solutions obtained in the vanishing viscosity limit satisfy a representation formula in terms of the flow of the velocity and that the strong convergence of the vorticity holds and we give a rate of convergence.

Overview

Abstract

This talk reviews recent results concerning the inviscid limit for the 2D Euler equations with unbounded vorticity. In particular, by using techniques from the theory of transport equation with no smooth vector fields, we show that the solutions obtained in the vanishing viscosity limit satisfy a representation formula in terms of the flow of the velocity and that the strong convergence of the vorticity holds and we give a rate of convergence. The talk is based on results obtained in collaboration with Gianluca Crippa (Univ. Basel) and Gennaro Ciampa (Università Milano Statale).
