The Second International Conference: Nonlinear Waves--Theory and Applications

 MINISYMPOSIA

Nonlinear Waves in 3D Euler Equations and Surface Geostrophic Flows
Organizer:
Xinwei Yu   ( University of Alberta, Canada )
 
The 3D Euler and 2D Surface Quasi-Geostrophic (SQG) Equations receive much interest in the past 20 years due to their importance in mathematical fluid mechanics and the development of the mathematical theory for nonlinear evolutionary partial differential equations. Recently, new progresses have been made in the study of both equations. On one hand, recent numerical, analytical, and geometrical results have revealed hidden structures in the nonlinear interactions of the 3D Euler and 2D SQG equations; On the other hand, understanding of existing 1D model equations of these equations is becoming more complete, and several new model equations highlighting possible singularity formation mechanisms have been proposed and studied. A thorough understanding of these new results will serve as a foundation for the future development of a complete theory of mathematical fluid mechanics. The objective of this minisymposium is to bring together experts worldwide and present state-of-the-art research results. It will also serve as a platform for the discusssion of future directions of the study of the 3D Euler, 2D SQG, and related equations.
