This paper proves that the motion of small-slope vorticity fronts in the two-dimensional incompressible Euler equations is approximated on cubically nonlinear timescales by a Burgers–Hilbert equation derived by Biello and Hunter (2010) using formal asymptotic expansions. The proof uses a modified energy method to show that the contour dynamics equations for vorticity fronts in the Euler equations and the Burgers–Hilbert equation are both approximated by the same cubically nonlinear asymptotic equation. The contour dynamics equations for Euler vorticity fronts are also derived.

K-Theoretic Descendent Series for Hilbert Schemes of Points on Surfaces
We study the holomorphic Euler characteristics of tautological sheaves on Hilbert schemes of points on surfaces. In particular, we establish the rationality of K-theoretic descendent series. Our approach is to control equivariant holomorphic Euler characteristics over the Hilbert scheme of points on the affine plane. To do so, we slightly modify a Macdonald polynomial identity of Mellit.

Classically, an indecomposable class $$R$$ in the cone of effective curves on a K3 surface $$X$$ is representable by a smooth rational curve if and only if $$R^{2}=-2$$ . We prove a higher-dimensional generalization conjectured by Hassett and Tschinkel: for a holomorphic symplectic variety $$M$$ deformation equivalent to a Hilbert scheme of $$n$$ points on a K3 surface, an extremal curve class $$R\in H_{2}(M,\mathbb{Z})$$ in the Mori cone is the line in a Lagrangian $$n$$ -plane $$\mathbb{P}^{n}\subset M$$ if and only if certain intersection-theoretic criteria are met. In particular, any such class satisfies $$(R,R)=-\frac{n+3}{2}$$ , and the primitive such classes are all contained in a single monodromy orbit.more » « less

Abstract Suppose that a Hilbert scheme of points on a K3 surface of Picard rank one admits a rational Lagrangian fibration. We show that if the degree of the surface is sufficiently large compared to the number of points, then the Hilbert scheme is the unique hyperkähler manifold in its birational class. In particular, the Hilbert scheme is a Lagrangian fibration itself, which we realize as coming from a (twisted) Beauville–Mukai system on a Fourier–Mukai partner of . We also show that when the degree of the surface is small our method can be used to find all birational models of the Hilbert scheme.more » « less

The relativistic Vlasov-Maxwell-Landau (r-VML) system and the relativistic Landau (r-LAN) equation are fundamental models that describe the dynamics of an electron gas. In this paper, we introduce a novel weighted energy method and establish the validity of the Hilbert expansion for the one-species r-VML system and r-LAN equation. As the Knudsen number shrinks to zero, we rigorously demonstrate the relativistic Euler-Maxwell limit and relativistic Euler limit, respectively. This successfully resolves the long-standing open problem regarding the hydrodynamic limits of Landau-type equations.more » « less

Boundary effects play an important role in the study of hydrodynamic limits in the Boltzmann theory. Based on a systematic study of the viscous layer equations and the L2 to L∞ framework, we establish the validity of the Hilbert expansion for the Boltzmann equation with specular reflection boundary conditions, which leads to derivations of compressible Euler equations and acoustic equations in half-space.more » « less
