Abstract

In this paper, we study the global structure of a bifurcation diagram for rotating doubly connected patches near a degenerate case for incompressible Euler equations. We show that branches with the same symmetry merge, forming a small loop, provided that they are close enough. This gives an analytical proof for the numerical observations conducted in the recent work by de la Hoz et al (2016 SIAM J. Math. Anal. 48 1892-928).
