Lyapunov Orbits in the $n$-Vortex Problem on the Sphere
2015, vol. 20, no. 3, pp. 234-246
Abstract
In the phase space reduced by rotation, we prove the existence of periodic orbits of the $(n + 1)$-vortex problem emanating from a relative equilibrium formed by $n$ unit vortices at the vertices of a regular polygon at a fixed latitude and an additional vortex of intensity κ at the north pole when the ideal fluid moves on the surface of a sphere.

Lyapunov Orbits in the $n$-Vortex Problem

Abstract
In the reduced phase space by rotation, we prove the existence of periodic orbits of the $n$-vortex problem emanating from a relative equilibrium formed by $n$ unit vortices at the vertices of a regular polygon, both in the plane and at a fixed latitude when the ideal fluid moves on the surface of a sphere. In the case of a plane we also prove the existence of such periodic orbits in the $(n+1)$-vortex problem, where an additional central vortex of intensity κ is added to the ring of the polygonal configuration.
