Abstract
It does not seem to be possible to prove analytically that an incompressible, inviscid free shear layer is less unstable with respect to spatially growing three-dimensional disturbances than to two-dimensional ones. For this reason a numerical calculation for the special case of the hyperbolic tangent velocity profile was performed. It was found that even for spatially growing disturbances the amplification of three-dimensional disturbances is smaller than for two-dimensional ones.
