In this talk r-form fields in spacetimes of any dimension D are considered (r<D). The weak-field Newtonian-type limit of Einstein's equations, in general, with relativistic sources is studied in the static case yielding a revision of the…
The properties of LRS class II perfect fluid space-times are analyzed using the description of geometries in terms of the Riemann tensor and a finite number of its covariant derivatives. In this manner it is straightforward to obtain the…
The vortex method is a common numerical and theoretical approach used to implement the motion of an ideal flow, in which the vorticity is approximated by a sum of point vortices, so that the Euler equations read as a system of ordinary…
It is well-known that the dynamics of vortices in an ideal incompressible two-dimensional fluid contained in a bounded not necessarily simply connected smooth domain is described by the Kirchhoff--Routh point vortex system. In this paper,…
Perfect fluid spacetimes admitting a kinematic self-similarity of infinite type are investigated. In the case of plane, spherically or hyperbolically symmetric space-times the field equations reduce to a system of autonomous ordinary…
Effective field theory descriptions of surface waves on flowing fluids have tended to assume that the flow is irrotational, but this assumption is often impractical due to boundary layer friction and flow recirculation. Here we develop an…
A class of the symmetrically frustrated SU(N) models is constructed for quantum magnets based on the generators of SU(N) group. The total Hamiltonian lacks SU(N) symmtry. A mean field theory in the quasi-particle representation is developed…
We consider a 2D incompressible and electrically conducting fluid in the domain $\mathbb{T}\times\mathbb{R}$. The aim is to quantify stability properties of the Couette flow $(y,0)$ with a constant homogenous magnetic field $(\beta,0)$ when…
The author studies the flows of an ideal incompressible fluid in a 2-dimensional domain, and in particular questions of instability and controllability.
More than half of a century has passed since the free energy of classical fluids defined by second Legendre transform was derived as a functional of density-density correlation function. It is now becoming an increasingly significant issue…
A hidden gauge theory structure of quantum mechanics which is invisible in its conventional formulation is uncovered. Quantum mechanics is shown to be equivalent to a certain Yang-Mills theory with an infinite-dimensional gauge group and a…
In these notes, we expose some recent works by the author in collaboration with Olivier Glass, Christophe Lacave and Alexandre Munnier, establishing point vortex dynamics as zero-radius limits of motions of a rigid body immersed in a two…
A superfluid flows without friction below a critical velocity, exhibiting zero drag force on impurities. Above this threshold, superfluidity breaks down, and the internal energy is redistributed into incoherent excitations such as vortices.…
The variational theory of the perfect hypermomentum fluid is developed. The new type of the generalized Frenkel condition is considered. The Lagrangian density of such fluid is stated, and the equations of motion of the fluid and the…
In the Second Order Theories (SOT) of real relativistic fluids, the non-ideal properties of the flows are described by a new set of dynamical tensor variables. In this work we explore the non-linear dynamics of those variables in a…
Superfluid turbulence, often referred to as quantum turbulence, is a fascinating phenomenon for which a satisfactory theoretical framework is lacking. Holographic duality provides a systematic new approach to studying quantum turbulence by…
We show that the standard perfect fluid paradigm is not necessarily a valid description of a curved space steady state gravitational source. Simply by virtue of not being flat, curved space geometries have to possess intrinsic length…
The properties of phase transitions and the types of order present in the low-temperature states of matter are fundamentally dependent on the dimensionality of physical systems. Generally, highly ordered states are more robust in higher…
The Euler equation for an inviscid, incompressible fluid in a three-dimensional domain M implies that the vorticity is a frozen-in field. This can be used to construct a symplectic structure on RxM. The normalized vorticity and the…
In this paper we further develop the fluctuating hydrodynamics proposed in arXiv:1511.03646 in a number of ways. We first work out in detail the classical limit of the hydrodynamical action, which exhibits many simplifications. In…
