In a series of previous works (arXiv:2104.11204, arXiv:2110.04565, arXiv:2301.07063), we gave a rigorous derivation of the homogeneous wave kinetic equation (WKE) up to small multiples of the kinetic timescale, which corresponds to short…

Although wave kinetic equations have been rigorously derived in dimension $d \geq 2$, both the physical and mathematical theory of wave turbulence in dimension $d = 1$ is less understood. Here, we look at the one-dimensional MMT (Majda,…

A fundamental question in wave turbulence theory is to understand how the "wave kinetic equation" (WKE) describes the long-time dynamics of its associated nonlinear dispersive equation. Formal derivations in the physics literature date back…

Wave turbulence is the study of the long-time statistical behaviour of equations describing a set of weakly non-linear interacting waves. Such a theory, which has a natural asymptotic closure, allows us to probe the nature of turbulence…

Fast magnetosonic waves are among the fundamental oscillation modes of astrophysical plasmas. To study their dynamics, we carry out numerical simulations of the wave turbulence kinetic equation, which describes the evolution of the energy…

Starting from a stochastic Zakharov-Kuznetsov (ZK) equation on a lattice, the previous work [ST21] by the last two authors gave a derivation of the homogeneous 3-wave kinetic equation at the kinetic limit under very general assumptions: the…

We examine the validity of the kinetic description of wave turbulence for a model quadratic equation. We focus on the space-inhomogeneous case, which had not been treated earlier; the space-homogeneous case is a simple variant. We determine…

A spherical shell model for turbulence, obtained by coupling $N$ replicas of the Gledzer, Okhitani and Yamada shell model, is considered. Conservation of energy and of an helicity-like invariant is imposed in the inviscid limit. In the $N…
