It is still unknown whether a solution with smooth initial data can develop a singularity in finite time. This article explains why the prediction of such a blow-up, via direct numerical experiments, is so difficult. It is described how, in such a scenario, the solution becomes unstable as time approaches the blow-up time.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-08-15T21:10:08.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "blow-up solutions", "hydrodynamically unstable", "incompressible 3d euler equation", "smooth initial data", "time approaches" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 12, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
