In Kontsevich's graph calculus, internal vertices of directed graphs are inhabited by multi-vectors, e.g., Poisson bi-vectors; the Nambu-determinant Poisson brackets are differential-polynomial in the Casimir(s) and density $\varrho$ times…

Previously we published a dynamical model (E. Brown and G. Ahlers, Phys. Fluids, 20, 075101 (2008)) for the large-scale-circulation (LSC) dynamics of Rayleigh-Benard convection in cylindrical containers. The model consists of a pair of…
We define a contact metric structure on the manifold corresponding to a second order ordinary differential equation $d^2y/dx^2=f(x,y,y')$ and show that the contact metric structure is Sasakian if and only if the 1-form $\frac{1}{2}(dp-fdx)$…
The classical Rayleigh-B\'{e}nard convection (RBC) system is known to exhibit either subcritical or supercritical transition to convection in the presence or absence of rotation and/or magnetic field. However, the simultaneous exhibition of…
Previous numerical studies on homogeneous Rayleigh-B\'enard convection, which is Rayleigh-B\'enard convection (RBC) without walls, and therefore without boundary layers, have revealed a scaling regime that is consistent with theoretical…
Reduction is a process that uses symmetry to lower the order of a Hamiltonian system. The new variables in the reduced picture are often not canonical: there are no clear variables representing positions and momenta, and the Poisson bracket…
We show how hydrodynamics of relativistic system with broken continuous symmetry can be constructed using the Poisson bracket technique. We illustrate the method on the example of relativistic superfluids.
In this note we prove convexity, in the sense of Colding-Naber, of the regular set of solutions to some complex Monge-Ampere equations with conical singularities along simple normal crossing divisors. In particular, any two points in the…
