In this paper we prove the local rigidity of the Couette flow in the sense that there are no other stationary solutions near the Couette flow in a scale invariant space. This provides a stark contrast to the well-studied stationary Prandtl counterpart, and in particular offers a first result towards the rigidity question raised by R. E. Meyer in 1983.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2024-05-17T04:23:58.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "couette flow", "stationary triple-deck equations", "local rigidity", "well-studied stationary prandtl counterpart", "classical boundary layer model" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 24, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
