On the time-analytic behavior of particle trajectories in an ideal and incompressible fluid flow

This (Diplom-) thesis deals with the particle trajectories of an incompressible and ideal fluid flow in 𝑛 ≥ 2 dimensions. It presents a complete and detailed proof of the surprising fact that the trajectories of a smooth solution of the incompressible Euler equations are locally analytic in time. In following the approach of P. Serfati, a complex ordinary differential equation (ODE) is investigated which can be seen as a complex extension of a partial differential equation, which is solved by the trajectories. The right hand side of this ODE is in fact given by a singular integral operator which coincides with the pressure gradient along the trajectories. Eventually, we may apply the Cauchy-Lipschitz existence theorem involving holomorphic maps between complex Banach spaces in order to get a unique solution for the above mentioned ODE. This solution is
real-analytic in time and coincides with the particle trajectories.
