Abstract :
We study the dynamics along the particle trajectories for the 3D axisymmetric Euler equations. In particular, by rewriting the system of equations we find that there exists a complex Riccati type of structure in the system on the whole of , which generalizes substantially the previous results in [5] (D. Chae, On the blow-up problem for the axisymmetric 3D Euler equations, Nonlinearity 21 (2008) 2053–2060). Using this structure of equations, we deduce the new blow-up criterion that the radial increment of pressure is not consistent with the global regularity of classical solution. We also derive a much more refined version of the Lagrangian dynamics than that of [6] (D. Chae, On the Lagrangian dynamics for the 3D incompressible Euler equations, Comm. Math. Phys. 269 (2) (2007) 557–569) in the case of axisymmetry.
