We consider a passive scalar $f$ advected by a strictly monotone shear flow and with a diffusivity parameter $\nu\ll 1$. We prove an estimate on the homogeneous $\dot{H}^{-1}$ norm of $f$ that combines both the $L^2$ enhanced diffusion…

We prove that curve shortening flow on the round sphere displays sharp chord-arc improvement, precisely as in the planar setting (Andrews and Bryan, Comm. Anal. Geom., 2011). As in the planar case, the sharp estimate implies control on the…

This paper investigates enhanced dissipation for a passive scalar advected by "very rough" horizontal shear flows, described by an advection-diffusion equation on the 2D torus. The authors extend results of Galeati and Gubinelli (2023) to…
