In-Person Talk 

In this talk, we study stationary solutions to the 2D incompressible Euler equations in the whole plane. It is well-known that any radial vorticity is stationary. For compactly supported vorticity, it is more difficult to see whether a stationary solution has to be radial. In the case where the vorticity is non-negative, it has been shown that any stationary solution has be radial. By allowing the vorticity to change the sign, we prove that there exist non-radial stationary patch-type solutions. We construct patch-type solutions whose kinetic energy is infinite or finite. For the finite energy case, it turns out that a construction of a stationary solution with compactly supported velocity is possible.
