Euler equation as a limit of solutions of Boltzmann or Navier-Stokes equation
Claude Bardos
(Paris VII Denis Diderot)
Abstract
Recent results (starting with Scheffer and
Shnirelman and continuing with De Lellis and Szekelhyhidi ) underline
the importance of considering solutions of the incompressible Euler
equations as limits of solutions of more physical examples like
Navier-Stokes or Boltzmann.
I intend to discuss several examples illustrating this issue.
