An analytical and numerical study of steady patches in the disc

In this paper, we prove the existence of $m$-fold rotating patches for the Euler equations in the disc, for both simply-connected and doubly-connected cases. Compared to the planar case, the rigid boundary introduces rich dynamics for the lowest symmetries $m=1$ and $m=2$. We also discuss some numerical experiments highlighting the interaction between the boundary of the patch and the rigid one.
