We study a superfluid on a lattice close to a transition into a supersolid phase and show that a uniform superflow in the homogeneous superfluid can drive the roton gap to zero. This leads to supersolid order around the vortex core in the…
In his first 1941 paper Kolmogorov assumed that the velocity has increments which are homogeneous and independent of the velocity at a suitable reference point. This assumption of local homogeneity is consistent with the nonlinear dynamics…
Vortices are expected to exist in a supersolid but experimentally their detection can be difficult because the vortex cores are localized at positions where the local density is very low. We address here this problem by performing numerical…
An improved understanding of turbulence is essential for the effective modelling and control of industrial and geophysical processes. Homogeneous, isotropic turbulence (HIT) is the archetypal field for developing turbulence physics theory.…
The flow of quantized vortex lines in superfluid 3He-B is laminar at high temperatures, but below 0.6 Tc turbulence becomes possible, owing to the rapidly decreasing mutual friction damping. In the turbulent regime a vortex evolving in…

Quantized vortices stunningly illustrate the coherent nature of a superfluid Bose condensate of alkali atoms. Introducing an optical lattice depletes this coherence. Consequently, novel vortex physics may emerge in an experiment on a…
We study the evolution of vortex sheets according to the Birkhoff-Rott equation, which describe the motion of sharp shear interfaces governed by the incompressible Euler equation in two dimensions. In a recent work, the authors demonstrated…

We consider the propagation of breathers along a quantised superfluid vortex. Using the correspondence between the local induction approximation (LIA) and the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation, we identify a set of initial conditions…
By developing the hydrodynamic theory of spinor superfluids we calculate the moment of inertia of a harmonically trapped Bose-Einstein condensate with spin-orbit coupling. We show that the velocity field associated with the rotation of the…
The transition to turbulence in Taylor-Couette flow often occurs via a sequence of supercritical bifurcations to progressively more complex, yet stable, flows. We describe a subcritical laminar-turbulent transition in the counter-rotating…
In recent works, we proposed a hypothesis, according to which turbulence in gases is created by the mean field effect of an intermolecular potential. We discovered that, in a numerically simulated inertial flow, turbulent solutions indeed…
