| Abstract | We study nonlinear instability of stationary ideal plane ows. For any bounded domain and very general steady ows, we showed that if the linearized equation has an exponentially growing solution then the steady ow is nonlinearly unstable. The nonlinear instability is in the sense that we can nd an initial perturbation arbitrarily close to the steady ow such that the Lp norm of the velocity perturbation grows exponentially beyond a xed value. The same result is also proved for the Charney-Hasegawa-Mima equation. 1. Introduction We consider a two-dimensional incompressible inviscid ow satisfying Euler equations (1.1a) @tu+ (u ru) +rp = 0; (1.1b) r u = 0; in a bounded domain of class C with boundary @ composed of a nite number of connected components i. The boundary condition is (1.1c) u n = 0 on @ ; where n stands for the unit outer normal of @ . The vorticity form of (1.1) is given by (1.2) @t! + curl 1 (!) r! = 0; where u=curl ! is de ned for given circulations I |
