Let $V$ and $V'$ be vector spaces over division rings. Suppose $\dim V$ is finite and not less than 3. Consider a mapping $l:V\to V$ with the following property: for every $u\in {\rm GL}(V)$ there is $u'\in {\rm GL}(V')$ such that $lu=u'l$.…

We study the structure of the Mather and Aubry sets for the family of lagrangians given by the kinetic energy associated to a riemannian metric $ g$ on a closed manifold $ M$. In this case the Euler-Lagrange flow is the geodesic flow of…

We show an isomorphism stability property for Cartesian products of either flows with joining primeness property or flows which are $\alpha$-weakly mixing.

We model a 3D turbulent fluid, evolving toward a statistical equilibrium, by adding to the equations for the mean field $(v, p)$ a term like $-\alpha \nabla\cdot(\ell(x) D v_t)$. This is of the Kelvin-Voigt form, where the Prandtl mixing…

It is well-known that the flows generated by two smooth vector fields commute, if the Lie bracket of these vector fields vanishes. This assertion is known to extend to Lipschitz continuous vector fields, up to interpreting the vanishing of…

For a fixed positive integer $n$ and an $r$-uniform hypergraph $H$, the Tur\'an number $ex(n,H)$ is the maximum number of edges in an $H$-free $r$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices, and the Lagrangian density of $H$ is defined as…

We consider special flows over two-dimensional rotations by $(\alpha,\beta)$ on $\T^2$ and under piecewise $C^2$ roof functions $f$ satisfying von Neumann's condition $\int_{\T^2}f_x(x,y)\,dx\,dy\neq 0\neq \int_{\T^2}f_y(x,y)\,dx\,dy.$ Such…

A random-walk Metropolis sampler is geometrically ergodic if its equilibrium density is super-exponentially light and satisfies a curvature condition [Stochastic Process. Appl. 85 (2000) 341-361]. Many applications, including Bayesian…

We extend the generalized Langevin model, originally developed for the Lagrangian fluid particle velocity in constant-density shear-driven turbulence, to variable-density (VD) pressure-gradient-driven flows. VD effects due to non-uniform…

We study the passive transport of a scalar field by a spatially smooth but white-in-time incompressible Gaussian random velocity field on $\mathbb{R}^d$. If the velocity field $u$ is homogeneous, isotropic, and statistically self-similar,…

An $r$-uniform graph $G$ is dense if and only if every proper subgraph $G'$ of $G$ satisfies $\lambda (G') < \lambda (G)$, where $\lambda (G)$ is the Lagrangian of a hypergraph $G$. In 1980's, Sidorenko showed that $\pi(F)$, the Tur\'an…
