Three-point correlation function of a scalar mixed by an almost smooth random velocity field

Abstract

We demonstrate that if the exponent γ\gamma that measures non-smoothness of the velocity field is small then the isotropic zero modes of the scalar's triple correlation function have the scaling exponents proportional to γ\sqrt{\gamma}. Therefore, zero modes are subleading with respect to the forced solution that has normal scaling with the exponent γ\gamma.
