Abstract
Using a very high precision spectral calculation applied to the incompressible and inviscid flow with initial condition ψ0(x1,x2)=cosx1+cos2x2, we find that the width δ(t) of its analyticity strip follows a ln(1/t) law at short times over eight decades. The asymptotic equation governing the structure of spatial complex-space singularities at short times [Frisch, U., Matsumoto, T., Bec, J., 2003. J. Stat. Phys. 113, 761-781] is solved by a high-precision expansion method. Strong numerical evidence is obtained that singularities have infinite vorticity and lie on a complex manifold which is constructed explicitly as an envelope of analyticity disks.
