By similar method we also show nonexistence of self-similar blowing up solutions to the divergence-free transport equation in $\\Bbb R^n$. This result has direct applications to the density dependent Euler equations, the Boussinesq system, and the quasi-geostrophic equations, for which we also show nonexistence of self-similar blowing up solutions.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2006-01-16T01:02:23.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "3d incompressible euler equations", "self-similar singularities", "nonexistence", "density dependent euler equations", "divergence-free transport equation" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "Springer", "journal": "Commun.
