AB - <jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>We study the behavior of solutions to the incompressible 2<jats:italic>d</jats:italic> Euler equations near two canonical shear flows with critical points, the Kolmogorov and Poiseuille flows, with consequences for the associated Navier–Stokes problems. We exhibit a large family of new, non-trivial stationary states that are arbitrarily close to the Kolmogorov flow on the square torus <jats:inline-formula><jats:alternatives><jats:tex-math>$$\mathbb {T}^2$$</jats:tex-math><mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mml:msup> <mml:mrow> <mml:mi>T</mml:mi> </mml:mrow> <mml:mn>2</mml:mn> </mml:msup> </mml:math></jats:alternatives></jats:inline-formula> in analytic regularity. This situation contrasts strongly with the setting of some monotone shear flows, such as the Couette flow: there the linearized problem exhibits an “inviscid damping” mechanism that leads to relaxation of perturbations of the base flows back to nearby shear flows. Our results show that such a simple description of the long-time behavior is not possible for solutions near the Kolmogorov flow on <jats:inline-formula><jats:alternatives><jats:tex-math>$$\mathbb {T}^2$$</jats:tex-math><mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mml:msup> <mml:mrow> <mml:mi>T</mml:mi> </mml:mrow> <mml:mn>2</mml:mn> </mml:msup> </mml:math></jats:alternatives></jats:inline-formula>.
