We study the self diffusion of individual particles in dense (non-)uniform complex fluids within dynamic density functional theory and explicitly account for their coupling to the temporally fluctuating background particles. Applying the…
The dynamic melting of vortex lattices in type II superconductors is considered. A field-theoretic formulation of the pinning problem allows the average over the quenched disorder to be performed exactly. A self-consistent theory is…
Understanding the structural evolution of granular systems is a long-standing problem. A recently proposed theory for such dynamics in two dimensions predicts that steady states of very dense systems satisfy detailed-balance. We analyse…
Point vortices on a cylinder (periodic strip) are studied geometrically. The Hamiltonian formalism is developed, a non-existence theorem for relative equilibria is proved, equilibria are classified when all vorticities have the same sign,…
The motion of a vortex-(anti)vortex pair is studied numerically in the framework of a dynamical Ginzburg-Landau model, relevant to the description of a superconductor or of an idealized bosonic plasma. It is shown that up to a fine…
The global asymptotic dynamics of point vortices for the lake equations is rigorously derived. Vorticity that is initially sharply concentrated around $N$ distinct vortex centers is proven to remain concentrated for all times. Specifically,…
This article concerns the equations of motion of perfect incompressible fluids in a 3-D, smooth, bounded, simply connected domain. We suppose that the curl of the initial velocity field is a vortex patch, and examine the classical problems…
In this paper, we control the growth of the support of particular solutions to the Euler two-dimensional equations, whose vorticity is concentrated near special vortex crystals. These vortex crystals belong to the classical family of…
We consider solutions to the Euler equations in the whole space from a certain class, which can be characterized, in particular, by finiteness of mass, total energy and momentum. We prove that for a large class of right-hand sides,…
We carry out an analytical and numerical study of the motion of an isolated vortex in thermal equilibrium, the vortex being defined as the point singularity of a complex scalar field $\psi(\r,t)$ obeying a nonlinear stochastic Schr\"odinger…
The main result is that given a generic self-similarly expanding configuration of 3 point vortices that start sufficiently far out, we can instead take compactly supported vorticity functions, and the resulting solution to 2D incompressible…
Exotic vortex states with long range attraction and short range repulsion have recently been proposed to arise in superconducting hybrid structures and multi-band superconductors. Using large scale simulations we examine the static and…
We study the continuous time quantum walk of a single particle (initially localized at a single site) on a one-dimensional spatial lattice with complex nearest neighbour and next-nearest neighbour hopping amplitudes. Complex couplings lead…
Particle sedimentation in the vicinity of a fixed horizontal vortex with time-dependent intensity can be chaotic, provided gravity is sufficient to displace the particle cloud while the vortex is off or weak. This "stretch, sediment and…
We analyze a lattice model closely related to the one-dimensional inelastic gas with periodic boundary condition. The one-dimensional inelastic gas tends to form high density clusters of particles with almost the same velocity, separated by…
We demonstrate the control of vortical motion of neutral classical particles in driven superlattices. Our superlattice consists of a superposition of individual lattices whose potential depths are modulated periodically in time but with…
We put forward the existence of a rich variety of fully stationary vortex structures, termed H-clusters, made of an increasing number of vortices nested in paraxial wave fields confined by trapping potentials. However, we show that the…
We explore theoretically the complex dynamics and emergent behaviors of spinning spheres immersed in viscous fluid. The particles are coupled to each-other via the fluid in which they are suspended: each particle disturbs the surrounding…
Existence of a stationary mode for a Hamiltonian dynamic system of two point vortexes with different signs on different latitudes of a uniform rotating sphere complying with observed data is stated. It is shown that such mode realization is…
