Limiting solutions with 90-degree corners for rotating vortex patches

Let DD be a rotating vortex patch lying on the global bifurcation curve C\mathscr C, and let ss denote the parameter along this curve. The patches may converge weakly as ss tends to infinity.

Limiting-solutions conjecture. The singular solutions with 9090-degree corners seen in numerical computations exist as the weak limits of patches along C\mathscr C as ss\to\infty.

This conjecture formalizes numerical evidence for limiting rotating vortex patches with corner singularities. The source provides no proof or resolution of the asserted limiting behavior.
