One key issue in the probability density function (PDF) approach for disperse two-phase turbulent flows is to close the diffusion term in the phase space. This study aimed to derive a kinetic equation for particle dispersion in turbulent…

Many models require integrals of high-dimensional functions: for instance, to obtain marginal likelihoods. Such integrals may be intractable, or too expensive to compute numerically. Instead, we can use the Laplace approximation (LA). The…

This paper focuses on a nonlinear convection-diffusion equation with space and time-fractional Laplacian operators of orders $1<\beta<2$ and $0<\alpha\leq1$, respectively. We develop local discontinuous Galerkin methods, including Legendre…

It has been conjectured that transport in integrable one-dimensional (1D) systems is necessarily ballistic. The large diffusive response seen experimentally in nearly ideal realizations of the S=1/2 1D Heisenberg model is therefore puzzling…

We study the solutions of Von Neumann's expanding model with reversible processes for an infinite reaction network. We show that, contrary to the irreversible case, the solution space need not be convex in contracting phases (i.e. phases…

Diffusion of a tagged particle near a constraining biological surface is examined numerically by modeling the surface-water interaction by an effective potential. The effective potential is assumed to be given by an asymmetric double well…

We consider the $d$-dimensional Anderson model, and we prove the density of states is locally analytic if the single site potential distribution is locally analytic and the disorder is large. We employ the random walk expansion of…

We give an algorithmic local lemma by establishing a sufficient condition for the uniform random walk on a directed graph to reach a sink quickly. Our work is inspired by Moser's entropic method proof of the Lov\'{a}sz Local Lemma (LLL) for…

Due to its parabolic character, the diffusion equation exhibits instantaneous spatial spreading, and becomes unstable when Lorentz-boosted. According to the conventional interpretation, these features reflect a fundamental incompatibility…

We develop a replicated liquid theory for structural glasses which exhibit spatial variation of physical quantities along one axis, say $z$-axis. The theory becomes exact with infinite transverse dimension $d-1 \to \infty$. It provides an…
