We consider the multidimensional Monge-Kantrovich transport problem in an abstract setting. Our main results state that if a cost function and marginal measures are invariant by a family of transformations, then a solution of the Kantrovich…
We consider steady states for a class of mechanical systems with particle-disk interactions coupled to two, possibly unequal, heat baths. We show that any steady state that satisfies some natural assumptions is ergodic and absolutely…
We consider the equations of Navier-Stokes modeling viscous fluid flow past a moving or rotating obstacle in $\mathbb{R}^d$ subject to a prescribed velocity condition at infinity. In contrast to previously known results, where the…
We propose a mathematical derivation of stochastic compressible Navier-Stokes equation. We consider many-particle systems with a Hamiltonian dynamics supplemented by a friction term and environmental noise. Both the interaction potential…
This paper addresses structures of state space in quasiperiodically forced dynamical systems. We develop a theory of ergodic partition of state space in a class of measure-preserving and dissipative flows, which is a natural extension of…
In this article, we pay attention to transitive dynamical systems having the shadowing property and the entropy functions are upper semicontinuous. As for these dynamical systems, when we consider ergodic optimization restricted on the…
We study the Navier-Stokes equations governing the motion of isentropic compressible fluid in three dimensions driven by a multiplicative stochastic forcing. In particular, we consider a stochastic perturbation of the system as a function…
We present a new hydrodynamic model consisting of the pressureless Euler equations and the isentropic compressible Navier-Stokes equations where the coupling of two systems is through the drag force. This coupled system can be derived, in…
A distributional symmetry is invariance of a distribution under a group of transformations. Exchangeability and stationarity are examples. We explain that a result of ergodic theory provides a law of large numbers: If the group satisfies…
We establish various criteria, which are known in the incompressible case, for the validity of the inviscid limit for the compressible Navier-Stokes flows considered in a general domain $\Omega$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with or without a boundary.…
A principle of maximum entropy is proposed in the context of viscous incompressible flow in Eulerian coordinates. The relative entropy functional, defined over the space of $L^2$ divergence-free velocity fields, is maximized relative to…
A fundamental aspect of turbulence theory is related to the identification of realizable phase-space statistical descriptions able to reproduce in some suitable sense the stochastic fluid equations of a turbulent fluid. In particular, a…
We consider the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations with spatially periodic boundary conditions. If the Reynolds number is small enough we provide an elementary short proof of the existence of global in time H\"older continuous…
Recently, there has been an increasing interest on nonautonomous composition of perturbed hyperbolic systems: composing perturbations of a given hyperbolic map $F$ results in statistical behaviour close to that of $F$. We show this fact in…
We study a stability property of probability laws with respect to small violations of algorithmic randomness. A sufficient condition of stability is presented in terms of Schnorr tests of algorithmic randomness. Most probability laws, like…
We derive results on the distribution of directions of saddle connections on translation surfaces using only the Birkhoff ergodic theorem applied to the geodesic flow on the moduli space of translation surfaces. Our techniques, together…
It is argued that a diffusion may be ergodic even though the drift field has unbounded outward-directed parts. The discussion employs stochastic and numerical methods.
We extend a recent result of Tim Austin (see arXiv:0905.0515) to the L^1 setting, thus providing a general version of the Birkhoff ergodic theorem for functions taking values in nonpositively curved spaces. In this setting, the notion of a…
We consider a $C^{1,\alpha}$ smooth flow in $\mathbb{R}^n$ which is "strongly monotone" with respect to a cone $C$ of rank $k$, a closed set that contains a linear subspace of dimension $k$ and no linear subspaces of higher dimension. We…
The steady motion of a viscous incompressible fluid in a multiply-connected, planar, bounded domain (perforated with a large number of small holes) is modeled through the Navier-Stokes equations with non-homogeneous Dirichlet boundary data…
