The Vortex Filament Equation, the Talbot effect, and non-circular jets.

Abstract: We will propose the vortex filament equation as a possible toy model for turbulence, in particular because of its striking similarity to the dynamics of non-circular jets. This similarity implies the existence of some type of Talbot effect due to the interaction of non-linear waves that propagate along the filament. Another consequence of this interaction is the existence of a new class of multi-fractal sets that can be seen as a generalization of the graph of Riemann’s non-differentiable function. Theoretical and numerical arguments about the transfer of energy will be also given. This a joint work with V. Banica and F. de la Hoz.

Lisbon webinar in analysis and differential equations

Series comments: The Lisbon Webinar in Analysis in Differential Equations is a joint iniciative of CAMGSD, CMAFcIO and GFM, three research centers of the University of Lisbon. It is aimed at filling the absence of face-to-face seminars and wishes to be a meeting point of mathematicians working in the field. All seminars will take place in the Zoom platform. The links for the planned seminars can be found at: wade.ulisboa.pt/ In order to get the password to access the seminars, please subscribe the announcements in the registration menu wade.ulisboa.pt/registration, or contact one of the organizers.
