Nonexistence of Self-Similar Singularities for the 3D Incompressible Euler Equations

Abstract: We prove that there exists no self-similar finite time blowing up solution to the 3D incompressible Euler equations. By similar method we also show nonexistence of self-similar blowing up solutions to the divergence-free transport equation in R n . This result has direct applications to the density dependent Euler equations, the Boussinesq system, and the quasi-geostrophic equations, for which we also show nonexistence of self-similar blowing up solutions.

“…For the 3D Navier-Stokes this type of possibility leading to a self-similar singularity was first considered by Leray in [20], and its nonexistence was proved in [25], and the result was later refined by the authors in [34,24]. For the 3D Euler equations similar nonexistence result has been recently obtained by the author of this article in [3]. More refined notion of 'asymptotically self-similar singularity' is considered by the authors in [14], in the context of the nonlinear scalar heat equation, and also by physicists including the authors of [15,28] in the context of 3D Euler equations.…”
