| contents | In this paper, we consider the stability of the Lamb dipole solution of the two-dimensional Euler equations in $\mathbb{R}^{2}$ and question under which initial disturbance the Lamb dipole is stable, motivated by experimental work on the formation of a large vortex dipole in two-dimensional turbulence. We assume (O) odd symmetry for the $x_2$-variable and (N) non-negativity in the upper half plane for the initial disturbance of vorticity, and establish the stability theorem of the Lamb dipole without assuming (F) finite mass condition. The proof is based on a new variational characterization of the Lamb dipole using an improved energy inequality. |
