Linear instability for incompressible inviscid fluid flows : two classes of perturbations

One approach to examining the stability of a fluid flow is to linearize the evolution equation at an equilibrium and determine (if possible) the stability of the resulting linear evolution equation. In this dissertation, the space of perturbations of the equilibrium flow is split into two classes an...
