We define a refined topological vertex which depends in addition on a parameter, which physically corresponds to extending the self-dual graviphoton field strength to a more general configuration. Using this refined topological vertex we…

We extend the ideas of Kolmogorov theory on symmetries of turbulent dynamics to analyze invariants, scaling and spectra of unsteady turbulent mixing induced by the Rayleigh-Taylor instability. Time- and scale-invariance of the rate of…

We have found that in two-dimensional Kolmogorov flow a single spatially-localized turbulence (SLT) exists stably and travels with a constant speed on average switching the moving direction randomly and intermittently for moderate values of…

A theory of non-homogeneous turbulence is developed and is applied to boundary-free shear flows. The theory introduces assumptions of inner and outer similarity for the non-homogeneity of two-point statistics and predicts power law scalings…

We show that the Kolmogorov-1941 picture of fully developed hydrodynamic turbulence (with the scaling of the structure functions $S_n(R) \propto R^{n/3}$) necessarily leads to an anomalous scaling for correlation functions which include the…

The Rayleigh--Taylor (RT) turbulence is investigated by means of high resolution numerical simulations. The main question addressed here is on whether RT phenomenology can be considered as a manifestation of universality of Navier--Stokes…

The spectral slope of strong MHD turbulence has recently been a matter of controversy. While Goldreich-Sridhar model (1995) predicts Kolmogorov's -5/3 slope of turbulence, shallower slopes were often reported by numerical studies. We argue…

We study analytically and numerically the corrections to scaling in turbulence which arise due to the finite ratio of the outer scale $L$ of turbulence to the viscous scale $\eta$, i.e., they are due to finite size effects as anisotropic…
