We show exponential mixing of passive scalars advected by a solution to the stochastic Navier-Stokes equations with finitely many (e.g. four) forced modes satisfying a hypoellipticity condition. Our proof combines the asymptotic strong…
We study diffusion and mixing in different linear fluid dynamics models, mainly related to incompressible flows. In this setting, mixing is a purely advective effect which causes a transfer of energy to high frequencies. When diffusion is…
We establish exponential mixing for the geodesic flow $\varphi_t\colon T^1S\to T^1S$ of an incomplete, negatively curved surface $S$ with cusp-like singularities of a prescribed order. As a consequence, we obtain that the Weil-Petersson…
