Finite-time blowup conjecture for axisymmetric swirl-free Euler flow in dimensions at least four
Finite-time blowup conjecture for axisymmetric swirl-free Euler flow in dimensions at least four
Let belong to , where and , and let be its associated vorticity. Assume that is odd in and satisfies for all . Let
be the smooth Euler solution with initial data . Finite-time blowup conjecture. The maximal existence time satisfies , so the solution blows up in finite time. The preceding sign and monotonicity results motivate this conjecture, but the finite-time singularity formation claim in dimensions at least four remains open.
