Piecewise analytic bodies in subsonic potential flow

Abstract

We prove that there are no nonzero uniformly subsonic potential flows around bodies with three or more protruding corners, for piecewise analytic boundary and for equation of state a γ-law with γ>1. This generalizes an earlier result limited to the low-Mach limit for nondegenerate polygons. For incompressible flows we show the velocity cannot be globally bounded.
