We propose new formulations of geometric curvature flows -- referred to as \emph{dual formulations} -- that are equivalent to the original formulations but provide a novel framework for constructing linearly implicit and energy-stable…
We present Functional Mean Flow (FMF) as a one-step generative model defined in infinite-dimensional Hilbert space. FMF extends the one-step Mean Flow framework to functional domains by providing a theoretical formulation for Functional…
This paper proves that labelled flows are expressive enough to contain all process algebras which are a standard model for concurrency. More precisely, we construct the space of execution paths and of higher dimensional homotopies between…
Transitional pipe flow is modeled as a one-dimensional excitable and bistable medium. Models are presented in two variables, turbulence intensity and mean shear, that evolve according to established properties of transitional turbulence. A…
The past few years have seen many advances in our understanding of the dynamics of polymeric fluids. These include improvements on the successful reptation theory; an emerging molecular theory of semiflexible chain dynamics; and an…
The author has previously constructed a class of admissible vector fields on the path space of an elliptic diffusion process $x$ taking values in a closed compact manifold. In this Note the existence of flows for this class of vector fields…
For smooth vector fields the classical method of characteristics provides a link between the ordinary differential equation and the corresponding continuity equation (or transport equation). We study an analog of this connection for merely…
Two fluid configurations along a flow are conjugate if there is a one parameter family of geodesics (fluid flows) joining them to infinitesimal order. Geometrically, they can be seen as a consequence of the (infinite dimensional) group of…
The Taylor-Couette flow of a dilute micellar system known to generate shear-induced structures is investigated through simultaneous rheometry and ultrasonic imaging. We show that flow instabilities must be taken into account since both the…
This paper investigates which smooth manifolds arise as quotients (orbit spaces) of flows of vector fields. Such quotient maps were already known to be surjective on fundamental groups, but this paper shows that every epimorphism of…
Various fluid mechanical systems, governed by nonlinear differential equations, enjoy a hidden, higher-dimensional dynamical Poincar\'e symmetry, which arises owing to their descent from a Nambu-Goto action. Also, for the same reason, there…
We define morphological operators and filters for directional images whose pixel values are unit vectors. This requires an ordering relation for unit vectors which is obtained by using depth functions. They provide a centre-outward ordering…
A closure theory is developed for inhomogeneous turbulent flow, which enables a systematic derivation of the turbulence constitutive relations without relying on any empirical parameters. Renormalized-perturbation approximation is performed…
We devise in this work a simple mechanism for constructing flows on a Banach space from approximate flows, and show how it can be used in a simple way to reprove from scratch and extend the main existence and well-posedness results for…
In this paper, we study a new operation named pushforward on diffeological vector pseudo-bundles, which is left adjoint to the pullback. We show how to pushforward projective diffeological vector pseudo-bundles to get projective…
This chapter sets out preliminaries for the duality theory in later chapters. An underlying idea is that local cohomology functors are higher derived functors of colocalizations (a.k.a.~coreflections). Predominantly well-known facts about…
Directed percolation (DP), a universality class of continuous phase transitions, has recently been established as a possible route to turbulence in subcritical wall-bounded flows. In canonical straight pipe or planar flows, the transition…
The main objective of this paper is to extend Morse-Forman theory to vector-valued functions. This is mostly motivated by the need to develop new tools and methods to compute multiparameter persistence. To generalize the theory, in addition…
We introduce in this work a concept of rough driver that somehow provides a rough path-like analogue of an enriched object associated with time-dependent vector fields. We use the machinery of approximate flows to build the integration…
Separated flows past complex geometries are modelled by discrete vortex techniques. The flows are assumed to be rotational and inviscid, and a new technique is described to determine the streamfunctions for linear shear profiles. The…
