We show anomalous dissipation of scalars advected by weak solutions to the incompressible Euler equations with $C^{(\sfrac{1}{3})^-}$ regularity, for an arbitrary initial datum in $\dot H^1 (\T^3)$. This is the first rigorous derivation of…

The Obukhov-Corrsin theory of scalar turbulence [Obu49, Cor51] advances quantitative predictions on passive-scalar advection in a turbulent regime and can be regarded as the analogue for passive scalars of Kolmogorov's K41 theory of fully…

Anomalous diffusion is the fundamental ansatz of phenomenological theories of passive scalar turbulence, and has been confirmed numerically and experimentally to an extraordinary extent. The purpose of this survey is to discuss our recent…

Dissipation anomaly-the persistence of finite energy dissipation in the inviscid limit-is a hallmark of turbulence, sometimes regarded as the "zeroth law" of turbulent flows. Here, we demonstrate that this phenomenon is not exclusive to…

We construct a divergence-free velocity field $u:[0,T] \times \mathbb{T}^2 \to \mathbb{R}^2$ satisfying $$u \in C^\infty([0,T];C^\alpha(\mathbb{T}^2)) \quad \forall \alpha \in [0,1)$$ such that the corresponding drift-diffusion equation…

We study anomalous dissipation in the context of passive scalars and we construct a two-dimensional autonomous divergence-free velocity field in $C^\alpha$ (with $\alpha \in (0,1)$ arbitrary but fixed) which exhibits anomalous dissipation.…

A prevalent feature of three-dimensional turbulence is the presence of anomalous dissipation, or that the mean rate of energy dissipation is bounded below by a positive number in the inviscid limit. This is thought to be due to the…

In this work we rigorously establish a number of properties of "turbulent" solutions to the stochastic transport and the stochastic continuity equations constructed by Le Jan and Raimond in [Ann. Probab. 30(2): 826-873, 2002]. The advecting…
