Popis: | Certain systems of inviscid fluid dynamics have the property that for solutions that are only slightly better than differentiable in Eulerian variables, the corresponding Lagrangian trajectories are analytic in time. We elucidate the mechanisms in fluid dynamics systems that give rise to this automatic Lagrangian analyticity, as well as mechanisms in some particular fluids systems which prevent it from occurring. We give a conceptual argument for a general fluids model which shows that the fulfillment of a basic set of criteria results in the analyticity of the trajectory maps in time. We then apply this to the incompressible Euler equations to prove analyticity of trajectories for vortex patch solutions. We also use the method to prove the Lagrangian trajectories are analytic for solutions to the pressureless Euler-Poisson equations, for initial data with moderate regularity. We then examine the compressible Euler equations, and find that the finite speed of propagation in the system is incompatible with the Lagrangian analyticity property. By taking advantage of this finite speed we are able to construct smooth initial data with the property that some corresponding Lagrangian trajectory is not analytic in time. We also study the Vlasov-Poisson system, uncovering another mechanism that deters the analyticity of trajectories. In this instance, we find that a key nonlocal operator does not preserve analytic dependence in time. For this system we can also construct smooth initial data for which the corresponding solution has some non-analytic Lagrangian trajectory. This provides a counterexample to Lagrangian analyticity for a system in which there is an infinite speed of propagation, unlike the compressible Euler equations. 74 pages; references added, typos fixed, significant improvement of result for Vlasov-Poisson equation in Section 6, minor improvement of result for vortex patches in Section 3, removed subsection on previously known result for H\"older continuous vorticity for Euler in Section 3 to reduce size of article |
