The problem of the interplay between normal and anomalous scaling in turbulent systems stirred by a random forcing with a power law spectrum is addressed. We consider both linear and nonlinear systems. As for the linear case, we study…

Standard and anomalous transport in incompressible flow is investigated using multiscale techniques. Eddy-diffusivities emerge from the multiscale analysis through the solution of an auxiliary equation. From the latter it is derived an…

We show that the Kolmogorov-1941 picture of fully developed hydrodynamic turbulence (with the scaling of the structure functions $S_n(R) \propto R^{n/3}$) necessarily leads to an anomalous scaling for correlation functions which include the…

We prove the absence of anomalous dissipation for passive scalars driven by some random autonomous divergence-free vector fields in $\mathbb T^d$. In dimension $d=2$ we just need continuity almost surely and a mild nondegeneracy condition…

The conventional wisdom suggests that transports of conserved quantities in non-integrable quantum many-body systems at high temperatures are diffusive. However, we discover a counterexample of this paradigm by uncovering anomalous…

In this work, we investigate the large-scale transport properties of a passive scalar advected by a turbulent fluid, modelled as a superposition of divergence-free vector fields, each weighted by an independent symmetric…

We study a model of fully developed turbulence of a compressible fluid, based on the stochastic Navier-Stokes equation, by means of the field theoretic renormalization group. In this approach, scaling properties are related to the fixed…

We consider transport of passive particles in steady laminar plane flows of incompressible viscous fluids. While drifting along the streamlines, the particles experience alternating accelerations and slowdowns. For an ensemble of particles,…

Anomalous scaling problem in the stochastic Navier-Stokes equation is treated in the framework of the field theoretical approach, successfully applied earlier to the Kraichnan rapid advection model. Two cases of the space dimensions d=2 and…

An exact relation is derived between scalar dissipation due to molecular diffusivity and the randomness of stochastic Lagrangian trajectories for flows without bounding walls. This "Lagrangian fluctuation-dissipation relation" equates the…

We study relative dispersion of passive scalar in non-ideal cases, i.e. in situations in which asymptotic techniques cannot be applied; typically when the characteristic length scale of the Eulerian velocity field is not much smaller than…

The energy dissipation in the inviscid limit is a central problem in turbulence theory. Kolmogorov's K41 theory predicts a positive dissipation rate independent of viscosity -- a phenomenon known as anomalous dissipation. Bru\'e and De…

Differential models for hydrodynamic, passive-scalar and wave turbulence given by nonlinear first- and second-order evolution equations for the energy spectrum in the $k$-space were analysed. Both types of models predict formation an…

Anomalous dissipation, the persistence of a finite mean kinetic energy dissipation as the Reynolds number tends to infinity, occurs in flows with sufficiently spatially rough velocity fields. Compressible turbulence adds further anomalous…
