1-4. Some properties of circular swirling flows Let V ( x ) = x ⊥ f ( | x | ) , x ⊥ = ( − x 2 , x 1 ) for a scalar function f in R 2 .

2-1. Stability of the Lamb-Oseen vortex in exterior problem Problem: Large time behavior of solutions to (NS) for the initial velocity u 0 ( x ) = α U G (1 , x ) + v 0 ( x ) , v 0 ∈ L 2 | x | ≫ 1 , σ ( Ω ) . . Difficulty when Ω in an exterior domain (even for 0 < | α | ≪ 1 ) . (i) The vorticity equation is not useful to obtain the uniform bound in the scale-critical norms. (ii) The Hardy inequality is not available in the two-dimensional case: ∥ 1 W 1 , 2 f ∈ ˙ | x | f ∥ L 2 ( Ω ) ≤ C ∥∇ f ∥ L 2 ( Ω ) , 0 ( Ω ) . In particular, one can not expect the coercive (positive) estimate such as ⟨ − ∆ v + α ( U G · ∇ v + v · ∇ U G ) + v · ∇ v , v ⟩ L 2 ( Ω ) ≥ c ∥∇ v ∥ 2 L 2 ( Ω ) for v ∈ C ∞ 0 ,σ ( Ω ) , even when 0 < | α | ≪ 1 . .

2-2. Asymptotic behavior of two-dimensional exterior flows . Theorem 1 (Gallay-M. (2013), M. (2015)). . There is a constant δ > 0 such that for any u 0 ∈ L 2 , ∞ σ ( Ω ) of the form u 0 = α U G | t = 1 + v 0 , v 0 ∈ L 2 ( Ω ) 2 | α | ≤ δ , there exists a unique solution u to (NS) with initial data u 0 satisfying k 2 ∥∇ k ( u ( t ) − α U G ( t ) ) ∥ L 2 ( Ω ) = 0 , t →∞ t lim k = 0 , 1 . . · The local L 2 stability is proved by Iftimie-Karch-Lacave (2011). · The similar result holds even when α U G is replaced by the strong solution U obtained in Kozono-Yamazaki (1995) which satisfies 1 4 ∥ U ( t ) ∥ L 4 ( Ω ) ≤ δ ≪ 1 . sup ∥ U ( t ) ∥ L 2 , ∞ ( Ω ) + sup t t > 0 t > 0 Yasunori Maekawa (Tohoku University) Two-dimensional scale-critical flows

Key ingredients of the proof (i) The logarithmic growth energy estimate for the perturbation v ( t ) = u ( t ) − α U G ( t ) : ∫ t ∥ v ( t ) ∥ 2 ∥∇ v ( s ) ∥ 2 L 2 ( Ω ) + L 2 ( Ω ) d s 1 ≤ C ( ∥ v 0 ∥ L 2 ( Ω ) ) + C 0 α 2 log(1 + t ) , t > 1 . (ii) The analysis of the low frequency part of v by using the argument in Borchers-Miyakawa (1992) and Kozono-Ogawa (1993). Note. The argument essentially uses the scale-critical temporal decay of U G such as ∥ U G ( t ) ∥ L 4 ( Ω ) ≤ Ct − 1 / 4 . Yasunori Maekawa (Tohoku University) Two-dimensional scale-critical flows
