We use spectral analysis of Eulerian and Lagrangian dynamics to study the advective mixing in an incompressible 2D bounded cavity flow. A significant property of such a rotational flow at high Reynolds numbers is that mixing in its core is…
If X is a proper CAT(-1)-space and $\Gamma$ a non-elementary discrete group of isometries acting properly discontinuously on X, it is shown that the geodesic flow on the quotient space Y=X/$\Gamma$ is topologically mixing, provided that the…
We develop a new boundary condition for the weak inverse mean curvature flow, which gives canonical and non-trivial solutions in bounded domains. Roughly speaking, the boundary of the domain serves as an outer obstacle, and the evolving…
The flow of an electrically conducting fluid in a thin disc under the action of an azimuthal Lorentz force is studied experimentally. At small forcing, the Lorentz force is balanced by either viscosity or inertia, yielding quasi-Keplerian…
We introduce a family of hyperbolic flows on non-compact phase spaces that includes the geodesic flow on the modular surface. For these systems we prove exponential decay of correlations for sufficiently regular observables with respect to…
Non-monotonic velocity profiles are an inherent feature of mixing flows obeying non-slip boundary conditions. There are, however, few known models of laminar mixing which incorporate this feature and have proven mixing properties. Here we…
The Anomaly flow is shown to converge on toric fibrations with the Fu-Yau ansatz, for both positive and negative values of the slope parameter $\alpha'$. This implies both results of Fu and Yau on the existence of solutions for…
The near-bottom mixing that allows abyssal waters to upwell tilts isopycnals and spins up flow over the flanks of mid-ocean ridges. Meso- and large-scale currents along sloping topography are subjected to a delicate balance of Ekman arrest…
We analyze the well-posedness of a flow-plate interaction considered in [22, 24]. Specifically, we consider the Kutta-Joukowski boundary conditions for the flow [20, 28, 26], which ultimately give rise to a hyperbolic equation in the…
We consider a one-parameter family of invertible maps of a two-dimensional lattice, obtained by applying round-off to planar rotations. All orbits of these maps are conjectured to be periodic. We let the angle of rotation approach pi/2, and…
The purpose of this note is to give a complete proof of a $C^{0,\alpha}$ regularity result for the pressure for weak solutions of the two-dimensional "incompressible Euler equations" when the fluid velocity enjoys the same type of…
We consider suspension flows over uniquely ergodic skew-translations on a $d$-dimensional torus $\mathbb{T}^d$, for $d \geq 2$. We prove that there exists a set $\mathscr{R}$ of smooth functions, which is dense in the space…
We study time-changes of unipotent flows on finite volume quotients of semisimple linear groups, generalising previous work by Ratner on time-changes of horocycle flows. Any measurable isomorphism between time-changes of unipotent flows…
Whenever an It\^o-Wentsel type of formula holds for composition of flows of a certain differential dynamics, there exists locally a decomposition of the corresponding flow according to complementary distributions (or foliations, in the case…
We consider suspension flows built over interval exchange transformations with the help of roof functions having an asymmetric logarithmic singularity. We prove that such flows are strongly mixing for a full measure set of interval exchange…
On a compact Riemannian manifold, we study the various dynamical properties of the Schr\"odinger flow $(e^{it\Delta/2})$, through the notion of semiclassical measures and the quantum-classical correspondence between the Schr\"odinger…
We give a simplified and a direct proof of a special case of Ratner's theorem on closures and uniform distribution of individual orbits of unipotent flows; namely, the case of orbits of the diagonally embedded unipotent subgroup acting on…
In this article we examine the interaction of incompressible 2D flows with compact material boundaries. Our focus is the dynamic behavior of the circulation of velocity around boundary components and the possible exchange between flow…
This is a survey of some of the recent developments on the geometric and analytic aspects of the Anomaly flow. It is a flow of $(2,2)$-forms on a $3$-fold which was originally motivated by string theory and the need to preserve the…
We provide geometric conditions on the set of boundary points of infinite type of a smooth bounded pseudoconvex domain in $\mathbb{C}^{n}$ which imply that the $\bar{\partial}$-Neumann operator is compact. These conditions are formulated in…
