The well-known Constantin-Lax-Majda (CLM) equation, an important toy model of the 3D Euler equations without convection, can develop finite time singularities [5]. De Gregorio modified the CLM model by adding a convective term [6], which is known important for fluid dynamics [10,14]. Presented are two results on the De Gregorio model. The first one is the global well-posedness of such a model for general initial data with non-negative (or non-positive) vorticity which is based on a newly discovered conserved quantity. This verifies the numerical observations for such class of initial data. The second one is an exponential stability result of ground states, which is similar to the recent significant work of Jia, Steward and Sverak [11], with the zero mean constraint on the initial data being removable. The novelty of the method is the introduction of the new solution space H DW together with a new basis and an effective inner product of H DW . Remark 1.4. Theorem 1.1 also holds true for non-positive initial data ω in , in which case we require that ω in ∈ L 1 (Ω) and ∂ θ ( √ −ω in ) ∈ L 2 (Ω). In fact, we only need to considerω = −ω, which satisfies: − ∂ tω +ū∂ θω =ω∂ θū , ∂ θū = Hω.(1.2)Note that equation (1.2) is simply a time reversed version of (1.1) and the proof of Theorem 1.1 in Section 2 still works.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
