Nonlinear stability of a parabolic velocity profile in a plane periodic channel

An inviscid or viscous incompressible flow with a general parabolic velocity profile in an infinite plane periodic channel with parallel walls that can move is considered with the impermeability conditions (for the Euler equations) or the no-slip conditions (for the Navier–Stokes equations). The nonlinear (for the original equations) and nonlocal (for all Reynolds numbers) stability of the unperturbed flow with respect to arbitrary two-dimensional smooth perturbations of the initial velocity field is established.
