Three-dimensional turbulence is usually studied experimentally by using a spatially localized forcing at large scales (e.g. via rotating blades or oscillating grids), often in a deterministic way. Here, we report an original technique where…
It is shown in the paper that each Hecke symmetry R with the R-symmetric algebra freely generated by 3 commuting elements is determined by a bivector and a symmetric bilinear form on a 3-dimensional vector space. A general formula for such…
Kinetic helicity (hereafter helicity) is defined by the correlation between the velocity and the flow-aligned vorticity. Helicity, as well as energy, is an inviscid invariant of the hydrodynamic equations. In contrast to energy, a measure…
We briefly review helicity dynamics, inverse and bi-directional cascades in fluid and magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence, with an emphasis on the latter. The energy of a turbulent system, an invariant in the non-dissipative case, is…

This paper explores the existence of kinematical gauge transformations for Lorentz invariant equations which describe a multiplet of two spin $\frac{1}{2}$ particles. For this multiplet the additional gauge invariance can be in form of…

Helicity is a fundamental conserved quantity in physical systems governed by vector fields whose evolution is described by volume-preserving transformations on a three-manifold. Notable examples include inviscid, incompressible fluid flows,…
Vacuum birefringence is governed by the amplitude for a photon to flip helicity or polarisation state in an external field. Here we calculate the flip and non-flip amplitudes in arbitrary plane wave backgrounds, along with the induced…
