  • We prove a sharp orbital stability result for a class of exact steady solutions, expressed in terms of Bessel functions of the first kind, of the two-dimensional incompressible Euler equation in a disk. A special case of these solutions is the truncated Lamb dipole, whose stream function corresponds to the second eigenfunction of the Dirichlet Laplacian. The proof is achieved by establishing a suitable variational characterization for these solutions via conserved quantities of the Euler equation and employing a compactness argument.
