After a general introduction concerning the main Lagrangian-Eulerian aspects of incompressible hydrodynamic models, I will present two results. The first one concerns analyticity of fluid paths for a broad class of well-posed fluid equations. The second concerns a general Lagrangian-Eulerian strategy for proving uniqueness and local existence of solutions of limited smoothness for a class of incompressible hydrodynamic models including Oldroyd-B type complex fluid models and zero magnetic resistivity magneto-hydrodynamics equations.
