Triadic interactions are higher-order interactions that occur when a set of nodes affects the interaction between two other nodes. Examples of triadic interactions are present in the brain when glia modulate the synaptic signals among…
In the present technical note, we establish that the setting of the primitive variables of the unsteady incompressible fluid dynamics is ill-formulated in spatially periodic domains as the specification of the boundary velocity is too broad…

In turbulent flows kinetic energy is spread by nonlinear interactions over a broad range of scales. Energy transfer may proceed either toward small scales or in the reverse direction. The latter case is peculiar of two-dimensional (2D)…
In this work, we investigate the Navier-Stokes equation in the presence of thermal noise, both at finite viscosity (revisiting the seminal work by Forster-Nelson-Stephen) and in the inviscid limit, which has not yet been explored. We…
Three-wave interactions form the basis of our understanding of many pattern forming systems because they encapsulate the most basic nonlinear interactions. In problems with two comparable length scales, it is possible for two waves of the…

This paper concerns the large-time behavior of perturbations around a time-periodic solution to the Navier-Stokes-Fourier system in the three-dimensional whole space. The time-periodic solution exists when a given external force is small…
Astrophysical fluids are generically turbulent and this must be taken into account for most transport processes. We discuss how the preexisting turbulence modifies magnetic reconnection and how magnetic reconnection affects the MHD…
The old idea that an infinite dimensional dynamical system may have its high modes or frequencies slaved to low modes or frequencies is re-visited in the context of the $3D$ Navier-Stokes equations. A set of dimensionless frequencies…
The 3DVAR filter is prototypical of methods used to combine observed data with a dynamical system, online, in order to improve estimation of the state of the system. Such methods are used for high dimensional data assimilation problems,…
