On the continuum of point vortex collapse configurations
ORAL
Abstract
A robust numerical algorithm is presented for finding the continuum of point vortex self-similar collapse configurations. Several numerical examples are constructed using the algorithm, and typical continua are shown to have vortices parametrized along closed curves. The specific conditions on the circulations for which the curves are not closed are analyzed in detail, along with the different properties of the limit configurations.
