A fluid described by an Abelian Chern-Simons action principle in 4+1 dimensions is considered. Letting 3+1 dimensions correspond to the usual space and time, and assuming the fields to be independent of the fifth coordinate, the free theory…
Time-dependent models of fluid motion in thin layers, subject to signed source terms, represent important sub-problems within climate dynamics. Examples include ice sheets, sea ice, and even shallow oceans and lakes. We address these…
We consider the motion of an incompressible viscous fluid on a compact Riemannian manifold $\sM$ with boundary. The motion on $\sM$ is modeled by the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations, and the fluid is subject to pure or partial slip…
We show that at the level of linear response the low frequency limit of a strongly coupled field theory at finite temperature is determined by the horizon geometry of its gravity dual, i.e. by the "membrane paradigm" fluid of classical…
We study the thermodynamics and non-relativistic hydrodynamics of the holographic fluid on a finite cutoff surface in the Gauss-Bonnet gravity. It is shown that the isentropic flow of the fluid is equivalent to a radial component of…

Given the considerable theoretical challenges in understanding strongly coupled metals and non-Fermi liquids, it is valuable to have a framework to understand properties of metals that are universal, in the sense that they must hold in any…

In this paper, we study the longtime asymptotic behavior of a phase separation process occurring in a three-dimensional domain containing a fluid flow of given velocity. This process is modeled by a viscous convective Cahn-Hilliard system,…
We consider the most general asymptotically flat boundary conditions in three-dimensional Einstein gravity in the sense that we allow for the maximal number of independent free functions in the metric, leading to six towers of boundary…
