CONSTRUCTION OF AXISYMMETRIC STEADY STATES OF AN INVISCID INCOMPRESSIBLE FLUID BY SPATIALLY DISCRETIZED EQUATIONS FOR PSEUDO-ADVECTED VORTICITY TAKAHIRO NISHIYAMA Received 18 April 2005 An infinite number of generalized solutions to the stationary Euler equations with ax- isymmetry and prescribed circulation are constructed by applying the finite difference method for spatial variables to an equation of pseudo-advected vorticity. They are proved to be different from exact solutions which are written with trigonometric functions and a Coulomb wave function. 1. Introduction 3 3 In a domain Ω (⊂ R ), the velocity u (: Ω → R ) of a steady-state inviscid incompressible fluid is described by the stationary Euler equations with a boundary condition: (u · ∇)u = −∇p , ∇ · u = 0, u ·n | = 0, (1.1) ∂Ω or equivalently, 2 |u | (∇ × u) × u = −∇ p + , ∇ · u = 0, u ·n | = 0. (1.2) ∂Ω 2 Here, p (: Ω → R) is the pressure, ∂Ω is the boundary, and n is the unit outward normal vector on ∂Ω. In the axisymmetric case, the existence of solutions to (1.2) was discussed as the prob- lem of vortex rings in, for example, [2, 4, 5, 8]. Their methods were based on a variational principle for kinetic energy. By contrast, Vallis et al. [13] proposed a completely different approach to the solvabil- ity of (1.2). Assume that the pair (v, q) : Ω × {t 0} → R3 × R satisfies the nonstationary system 2 |v | v + ω × v + αv = −∇ q + , ∇
