Abstract:

The aim of the course is to give a self contained exposition of the recent paper written in collaboration with F. de la Hoz about the vortex filament equation for a regular polygon [1]. This equation, also called Localized Induction Approximation, is a mathematical idealization of the real dynamics that is given by Euler equations. Geometrically the velocity of a given point of the filament is in the direction of the binormal with a speed that is proportional to the curvature. The underlying PDE is a non-linear Schrodinger equation, so that some elemental aspects of non-linear dispersive equations will be also reviewed.
