A discontinuity of a turbulent ideal fluid is considered. It is supposed to be split and dispersed, or spread in the stochastic environment forming a gas without hydrostatic pressure. Two equal-mass fragments of a discontinuity are…
An inhomogeneous fluid in accelerated motion is investigated. When the velocity field $v(x)$ is not constant, the geometry viewed by a static observer is curved, as if the observer were immersed in a gravitational field. A…
The bubbles involved in sonochemistry and other applications of cavitation oscillate inertially. A correct estimation of the wave attenuation in such bubbly media requires a realistic estimation of the power dissipated by the oscillation of…
The universal theory of weakly nonlinear wave packets given by the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation is revisited. In the limit where the group and phase velocities are very close together, a multiple scale analysis carried out beyond all…
The evolution of surface gravity waves is driven by nonlinear interactions that trigger an energy cascade similarly to the one observed in hydrodynamic turbulence. This process, known as wave turbulence, has been found to display anomalous…
Claims have been made that, in two-particle interference experiments involving bosons, Bohmian trajectories may entail observable consequences incompatible with standard quantum mechanics. By general arguments and by an examination of…
In the first paper of this series, I investigated whether a wavefunction model of a heavy particle and a collection of light particles might generate "Brownian-Motion-Like" trajectories of the heavy particle. I concluded that it was…
The dynamical evolution of a Brownian particle in an inhomogeneous medium with spatially varying friction and temperature field is important to understand conceptually. It requires to address the basic problem of relative stability of…

The stochastic trajectories of molecules in living cells, as well as the dynamics in many other complex systems, often exhibit memory in their path over long periods of time. In addition, these systems can show dynamic heterogeneities due…

The boson peak (BP) is an excess of vibrational states over the Debye law appearing at terahertz frequencies. It is found in all glasses and marks the crossover between the long-wavelength behavior, where the solid can be considered as an…
The quantum formalism is a ``measurement'' formalism--a phenomenological formalism describing certain macroscopic regularities. We argue that it can be regarded, and best be understood, as arising from Bohmian mechanics, which is what…
Traveling wave charges lying on the insulating walls of an electrolyte-filled capillary, give rise to oscillatory modes which vanish when averaged over the period of oscillation. They also give rise to a \emph{zero mode} (a unidirectional,…
A null ray approaching a distant astronomical source appears to slow down, while a massive particle speeds up in accordance with Newtonian gravitation. The integration of these apparently incompatible aspects of motion in general relativity…
The dynamics of wave groups is studied for long waves, using the framework of the Benjamin-Bona-Mahony (BBM) equation and its generalizations. It is shown that the dynamics are richer than the corresponding results obtained just from the…
