Abstract
We establish the existence of fully three dimensional weak solutions o f the equilibrium ideal magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) equations, delp = ( del x B) x B, del. B = 0, in certain three dimensional tori T, with B. n = 0 on partial derivative T. Our solutions are of Bernoulli type wi th a tangential discontinuity across a toroidal interface T(i) subset- of T.
