Self-Similar Singularity of the Euler Equations on ℝ3
Abstract
We provide evidence of a finite-time singularity in the 3D Euler equations on the unbounded domain. Using a physics-informed neural network (PINN) with a self-similar ansatz, we find an approximate singular profile for the Euler system at the critical blowup rate of $0.5$ and certify it using a spline representation. The transport field associated with the obtained profile has local outgoing property throughout the domain that suggests linear damping, a key stabilizing mechanism for the candidate profile. We also establish a framework for proving nonlinear stability of the approximate self-similar profile, reducing the analysis to a large but finite collection of explicit estimates and computable constants.
