## Abstract

Two dimensional flows on fixed smooth surfaces have been studied in the point of view of vorticity dynamics. Firstly, the related deformation theory including kinematics and kinetics is developed. Secondly, some primary relations in vorticity dynamics have been extended to two dimensional flows on fixed smooth surface through which a theoretical framework of vorticity dynamics have been set up, mainly including governing equation of vorticity, Lagrange theorem on vorticity, Caswell formula on strain tensor and stream function & vorticity algorithm with pressure Possion equation for incompressible flows. The newly developed theory is characterized by the appearances of surface curvatures in some primary relations and governing equations.

## Recorded benchmark results

A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage.
