It is shown that bounds of all orders of derivative would follow from uniform bounds for the metric and the torsion 1-form, for a flow in non-K\"ahler geometry which can be interpreted as either a flow for the Type IIB string or the Anomaly…

We consider the Cauchy problem for the continuity equation with a bounded nearly incompressible vector field $b\colon (0,T) \times \mathbb R^d \to \mathbb R^d$, $T>0$. This class of vector fields arises in the context of hyperbolic…
We construct sub-grid scale models of incompressible fluids by considering expectations of semi-martingale Lagrangian particle trajectories. Our construction is based on the Lagrangian decomposition of flow maps into mean and fluctuation…
In this work we have obtained a higher-derivative Lagrangian for a charged fluid coupled with the electromagnetic fluid and the Dirac's constraints analysis was discussed. A set of first-class constraints fixed by noncovariant gauge…
We study the $L^2$-gradient flows, $\partial_t u-\mathrm{div}(\mathrm{D}f(x,\mathbb{A}u))=0$, of functionals of the type $\int_{\Omega}f(x,\mathbb{A}u)\,\mathrm{d}x$, where $f$ is a convex function of linear growth and $\mathbb{A}$ is some…
We review and test twelve different approaches to the detection of finite-time coherent material structures in two-dimensional, temporally aperiodic flows. We consider both mathematical methods and diagnostic scalar fields, comparing their…
Irreversibility of RG flows in two dimensions is shown using conserved vector currents. Out of a conserved vector current, a quantity decreasing along the RG flow is built up such that it is stationary at fixed points where it coincides…

The flow of an electrically conducting fluid in a thin disc under the action of an azimuthal Lorentz force is studied experimentally. At small forcing, the Lorentz force is balanced by either viscosity or inertia, yielding quasi-Keplerian…

The conventional Wigner function is inappropriate in a quantum field theory setting because, as a quasiprobability density over phase space, it is not manifestly Lorentz covariant. A manifestly relativistic variant is constructed as a…
