Topological modes in hydrodynamics — •Richard Green — Institute for Theoretical Physics, University of Amsterdam, Science Park 904, 1098 XH Amsterdam, The Netherlands — Instituut-Lorentz, Universiteit Leiden, 2300 RA Leiden, The Netherlands

Topological band theory has been applied in recent work to classical fluids such as geophysical waves on the Earth's surface, and flocks on curved surfaces. I review these problems and consider what general features enable topologically protected modes to be supported in such classical systems.
