Title: Hamiltonian dynamics of fluids and vortex sheets Speaker: Boris Khesin Date: Tuesday, April 8, 2014 Time: 1:00pm-2:00pm Place: Lecture Hall 102, Simons Center [box, type=”download”]Watch the video. [/box] Abstract: We show that an approximation of the hydrodynamical Euler equation describes the binormal mean-curvature flow on vortex membranes in any dimension. This generalizes the classical binormal, … Read more
