We formulate a variational (Hartree like) description of flux line liquids which improves on the theory we developed in an earlier paper [A.M. Ettouhami, Phys. Rev. B 65, 134504 (2002)]. We derive, in particular, how the massive term…
We present a general virial theorem for quantum particles with arbitrary zero-range or finite-range interactions in an arbitrary external potential. We deduce virial theorems for several situations relevant to trapped cold atoms: zero-range…
Shafranov's virial theorem implies that nontrivial magnetohydrodynamical equilibrium configurations must be supported by externally supplied currents. Here we extend the virial theorem to field theory, where it relates to Derrick's scaling…
We study dynamics of vortices in solutions of the Gross-Pitaevskii equation $i \partial_t u = \Delta u + \varepsilon^{-2} u (1 - |u|^2)$ on $\mathbb{R}^2$ with nonzero degree at infinity. We prove that vortices move according to the…

We formulate a quantum theory of vorticity (hydro)dynamics on a general two-dimensional bosonic lattice. In the classical limit of a bosonic condensate, it reduces to conserved plasma-like vortex-antivortex dynamics. The nonlocal…
The internal interactions of fluids occur at all scales therefore the resulting force fields have no reason to be smooth and differentiable. The release of the differentiability hypothesis has important mathematical consequences, like scale…

We consider a stochastic version of the point vortex system, in which the fluid velocity advects single vortices intermittently for small random times. Such system converges to the deterministic point vortex dynamics as the rate at which…
The point vortex model is an idealized model for describing the dynamics of many vortices with numerical efficiency, and has been shown to be powerful in modeling the dynamics of vortices in a superfluid. The model can be extended to…
Classical particle mechanics on curved spaces is related to the flow of ideal fluids, by a dual interpretation of the Hamilton-Jacobi equation. As in second quantization, the procedure relates the description of a system with a finite…
