Self-binormal solutions of the Localized Induction Approximation: Singularity formation

Abstract

We investigate the formation of singularities in a self-similar form of regular solutions of the Localized Induction Approximation (also referred as to the binormal flow). This equation appears as an approximation model for the self-induced motion of a vortex filament in an inviscid incompressible fluid. The solutions behave as 3d-logarithmic spirals at infinity. The proofs of the results are strongly based on the existing connection between the binormal flow and certain Schr\"odinger equations.
