Rapidly rotating spherical kinematic dynamos are computed using the combination of a quasi geostrophic (QG) model for the velocity field and a classical spectral 3D code for the magnetic field. On one hand, the QG flow is computed in the…

We characterize the $L^2$ decay rate of solutions to the 3D magneto-micropolar system in terms of the decay character of the initial datum. Due to a linear damping term, the micro-rotational field has a faster decay rate. We also address…

Two different approaches to the Roberts dynamo problem are considered. Firstly, the equations governing the magnetic field are specified to both harmonic and subharmonic solutions and reduced to matrix eigenvalue problems, which are solved…

We find asymptotical expansions as $\nu \to 0$ for integrals of the form $\int_{\mathbb{R}^d} F(x) / \big(\omega(x)^2 + \nu^2\big)\, dx$, where sufficiently smooth functions $F$ and $\omega$ satisfy natural assumptions for their behaviour…
