On classical solutions and singularity formation in incompressible fluids

·Terry Tao··

[This is a guest post by Diego Córdoba and Luis Martínez-Zoroa. This blog post was initially written in a different file format and converted using AI. — T.] Euler formulated the equations for an inviscid incompressible fluid more than 250 years ago. Published in his 1757 memoir, they belong to the earliest systems of partial differential equations in mathematical physics, following d’Alembert’s work on the wave equation. Understanding the evolution they describe has required the w...
