Intermittent convex integration for the 3D Euler equations
Buckmaster, T., Masmoudi, N., Novack, M., and Vicol, V.
For any positive regularity parameter β<\frac12, we construct non-conservative weak solutions of the 3D incompressible Euler equations which lie in H^βuniformly in time. In particular, we construct solutions which have an L^2-based regularity index strictly larger than \frac13, thus deviating from the H^\frac13-regularity corresponding to the Kolmogorov-Obhukov \frac53 power spectrum in the inertial range.

Convex integration constructions in hydrodynamics
Buckmaster, T., and Vlad, V.
Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society Nov, 2020
We review recent developments in the field of mathematical fluid dynamics which utilize techniques that go under the umbrella name convex integration. In the hydrodynamical context, these methods produce paradoxical solutions to the fluid equations which defy physical laws. These counterintuitive solutions have a number of properties that resemble predictions made by phenomenological theories of fluid turbulence. The goal of this review is to highlight some of these similarities while maintaining an emphasis on rigorous mathematical statements. We focus our attention on the construction of weak solutions for the incompressible Euler, Navier–Stokes, and magneto-hydrodynamic equations which violate these systems’ physical energy laws.

Formation of unstable shocks for 2D isentropic compressible Euler
In this paper we construct unstable shocks in the context of 2D isentropic compressible Euler in azimuthal symmetry. More specifically, we construct initial data that when viewed in self-similar coordinates, converges asymptotically to the unstable C^\frac15 self-similar solution to the Burgers’ equation. Moreover, we show the behavior is stable in C^8 modulo a two dimensional linear subspace. Under the azimuthal symmetry assumption, one cannot impose additional symmetry assumptions in order to isolate the corresponding manifold of initial data leading to stability: rather, we rely on modulation variable techniques in conjunction with a Newton scheme.

Shock Formation and Vorticity Creation for 3d Euler
Buckmaster, T., Shkoller, S., and Vicol, V.
Communications on Pure and Applied Mathematics Nov, 2023
Abstract We analyze the shock formation process for the 3D nonisentropic Euler equations with the ideal gas law, in which sound waves interact with entropy waves to produce vorticity. Building on our theory for isentropic flows in [3, 4], we give a constructive proof of shock formation from smooth initial data. Specifically, we prove that there exist smooth solutions to the nonisentropic Euler equations which form a generic stable shock with explicitly computable blowup time, location, and direction. This is achieved by establishing the asymptotic stability of a generic shock profile in modulated self-similar variables, controlling the interaction of wave families via: (i) pointwise bounds along Lagrangian trajectories, (ii) geometric vorticity structure, and (iii) high-order energy estimates in Sobolev spaces. \copyright 2022 Wiley Periodicals LLC.

Weak Solutions of Ideal MHD Which Do Not Conserve Magnetic Helicity
We construct weak solutions to the ideal magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) equations which have finite total energy, and whose magnetic helicity is not a constant function of time. In view of Taylor’s conjecture, this proves that there exist finite energy weak solutions to ideal MHD which cannot be attained in the infinite conductivity and zero viscosity limit. Our proof is based on a Nash-type convex integration scheme with intermittent building blocks adapted to the geometry of the MHD system.

Convex integration and phenomenologies in turbulence
In this review article we discuss a number of recent results concerning \em wild weak solutions of the incompressible Euler and Navier-Stokes equations. These results build on the groundbreaking works of De Lellis and Székelyhidi Jr., who extended Nash’s fundamental ideas on C^1 flexible isometric embeddings, into the realm of fluid dynamics. These techniques, which go under the umbrella name \em convex integration, have fundamental analogies with the phenomenological theories of hydrodynamic turbulence [51,54,55,200]. Mathematical problems arising in turbulence (such as the Onsager conjecture) have not only sparked new interest in convex integration, but certain experimentally observed features of turbulent flows (such as intermittency) have also informed new convex integration constructions.
First, we give an elementary construction of nonconservative C^0+_x,t weak solutions of the Euler equations, first proven by De Lellis-Székelyhidi Jr. [52,53].. Second, we present Isett’s [108] recent resolution of the flexible side of the Onsager conjecture. Here, we in fact follow the joint work [21] of De Lellis-Székelyhidi Jr. and the authors of this paper, in which weak solutions of the Euler equations in the regularity class C^\frac 13-_x,t are constructed, attaining any energy profile. Third, we give a concise proof of the authors’ recent result [23], which proves the existence of infinitely many weak solutions of the Navier-Stokes in the regularity class C^0_t L^2+_x ∩C^0_t W^1,1+_x. We conclude the article by mentioning a number of open problems at the intersection of convex integration and hydrodynamic turbulence.

Nonuniqueness of weak solutions to the Navier-Stokes equation
For initial datum of finite kinetic energy, Leray has proven in 1934 that there exists at least one global in time finite energy weak solution of the 3D Navier-Stokes equations. In this paper we prove that weak solutions of the 3D Navier-Stokes equations are not unique in the class of weak solutions with finite kinetic energy. Moreover, we prove that Hölder continuous dissipative weak solutions of the 3D Euler equations may be obtained as a strong vanishing viscosity limit of a sequence of finite energy weak solutions of the 3D Navier-Stokes equations.

Moreover, we show that a suitable h-principle holds in the regularity class C^\beta_t,x, for any β<1/3. The implication of this is that the dissipative solutions we construct are in a sense typical in the appropriate space of subsolutions as opposed to just isolated examples.

Effective Dynamics of the Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation on Large Domains
Buckmaster, T., Germain, P., Hani, Z., and Shatah, J.
Communications on Pure and Applied Mathematics Nov, 2017
We consider the nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation posed on the box [0,L]^d with periodic boundary conditions. The aim is to describe the long-time dynamics by deriving effective equations for it when L is large and the characteristic size εof the data is small. Such questions arise naturally when studying dispersive equations that are posed on large domains (like water waves in the ocean), and also in theory of statistical physics of dispersive waves, that goes by the name of "wave turbulence". Our main result is deriving a new equation, the continuous resonant (CR) equation, that describes the effective dynamics for large L and small εover very large time-scales. Such time-scales are well beyond the (a) nonlinear time-scale of the equation, and (b) the Euclidean time-scale at which the effective dynamics are given by (NLS) on \mathbb R^d. The proof relies heavily on tools from analytic number theory, such as a relatively modern version of theHardy-Littlewood circle method, which are modified and extended to be applicable in a PDE setting.

For any ε>0 we show the existence of continuous periodic weak solutions v of the Euler equations which do not conserve the kinetic energy and belong to the space L^1_t (C_x^\frac13-ε), namely x\mapsto v (x,t) is (\frac13-ε)-Hölder continuous in space at a.e. time t and the integral ∫[v(⋅, t)]_\frac13-ε dt is finite. A well-known open conjecture of L. Onsager claims that such solutions exist even in the class L^\infty_t (C_x^\frac13-ε).

In recent work by Isett (arXiv:1211.4065), and later by Buckmaster, De Lellis, Isett and Székelyhidi Jr. (arXiv:1302.2815), iterative schemes where presented for constructing solutions belonging to the Hölder class C^1/5-ε of the 3D incompressible Euler equations which do not conserve energy. The cited work is partially motivated by a conjecture of Lars Onsager in 1949 relating to the existence of C^1/3-ε solutions to the Euler equations which dissipate energy. In this note we show how the later scheme can be adapted in order to prove the existence of non-trivial Hölder continuous solutions which for almost every time belong to the critical Onsager Hölder regularity C^1/3-ε and have compact temporal support.

Anomalous dissipation for 1/5-Hölder Euler flows
Buckmaster, T., De Lellis, C., Isett, P., and Székelyhidi Jr., L.
Recently the second and fourth authors developed an iterative scheme for obtaining rough solutions of the 3D incompressible Euler equations in Hölder spaces. The motivation comes from Onsager’s conjecture. The construction involves a superposition of weakly interacting perturbed Beltrami flows on infinitely many scales. An obstruction to better regularity arises from the errors in the linear transport of a fast periodic flow by a slow velocity field.
In a recent paper the third author has improved upon the methods, introducing some novel ideas on how to deal with this obstruction, thereby reaching a better Hölder exponent — albeit weaker than the one conjectured by Onsager. In this paper we give a shorter proof of this final result, adhering more to the original scheme of the second and fourth authors and introducing some new devices. More precisely we show that for any positive ε, there exist periodic solutions of the 3D incompressible Euler equations that dissipate the total kinetic energy and belong to the Hölder class C^\frac15-ε.

Ann. Inst. H. Poincaré C Anal. Non Linéaire Nov, 2015
In this paper we will prove the existence of weak solutions to the Korteweg-de Vries initial value problem on the real line with H^-1 initial data; moreover, we will study the problem of orbital and asymptotic H^s stability of solitons for integers s≥-1; finally, we will also prove new a priori H^-1 bounds for solutions to the Korteweg-de Vries equation. The paper will utilise the Miura transformation to link the Korteweg-de Vries equation to the modified Korteweg-de Vries equation.
