内容概述:Kelvin-Stuart vortices are classical mixing layer fows with many applications in fluid mechanics, plasma physics and planetary rings. We prove that the whole family of Kelvin-Stuart vortices is nonlinearly stable for co-periodic perturbations, and linearly unstable for multi-periodic or modulational perturbations. Kelvin-Stuart cat's eyes also appear as magnetic islands which are magnetostatic equilibria for the 2D ideal MHD equations in plasmas. We prove nonlinear stability of these magnetic islands for co-periodic perturbations, and give the first rigorous proof of the coalescence instability.
