| contents | The nonlinear asymptotic stability of shear flows in the 2D Euler equations has traditionally been linked to inviscid damping in the periodic setting. Since Gevrey regularity is required to suppress the ``echo'' phenomenon, asymptotic stability is known to be impossible in Sobolev spaces.
In this paper, we identify a distinct stabilizing mechanism available in the infinite channel: the advection of vorticity to spatial infinity. We establish nonlinear asymptotic stability for the 2D Euler equations in the infinite channel $\mathbb{R}\times[0,1]$ at the minimal regularity of the Yudovich class ($L^{\infty}$ vorticity). Specifically, for a class of non-negative shear flows with a curvature bound, any $L^\infty$-small, compactly supported vorticity perturbation leads to decay on compact subsets and weak convergence to zero. |
