Abstract
For any smooth bounded domain , we construct a divergence-free velocity field for all , and magnetic fields for all and , that solve the kinematic dynamo equation and exhibit arbitrarily fast growth of any magnetic energy mode, uniformly in the vanishing-diffusivity limit . The construction is based on the convex integration scheme of Modena-Sz\'ekelyhidi and Cheskidov-Luo. The main novelty lies in the introduction of explicit potentials, which allow the solutions to be localized and avoid the need to work with the anti-curl operator. In addition, we present a unified scheme for the geometric transport equation (GTE), which encompasses both the transport and Maxwell equations.
