We propose a theoretical framework where the dissipative structures of turbulence emerge from microscopic path uncertainty. By modeling fluid parcels as stochastic tracers governed by the Schr\"odinger Bridge (SB) variational principle, we…

The Probability Distribution Function of plasma density fluctuations at the edge of fusion devices is known to be skewed and strongly non-Gaussian. The causes of this peculiar behaviour are, up to now, largely unexplored. On the other hand,…

The velocity circulation, a measure of the rotation of a fluid within a closed path, is a fundamental observable in classical and quantum flows. It is indeed a Lagrangian invariant in inviscid classical fluids. In quantum flows, circulation…

Particle pair (relative) diffusion in a field of homogeneous turbulence with generalised power-law energy spectra, $E(k)\sim k^{-p}$ for $1< p\le 3$ and $k_1\le k\le k_\eta$ with $k_\eta/k_1=10^6$, is investigated numerically using…

In this paper we show results of numerical simulations for the turbulence in the interstellar medium. These results were obtained using a Riemann solver-free numerical scheme for high-Mach number hyperbolic equations. Here we especially…

We propose and verify a wave-vector-space version of generalized extended self similarity and broaden its applicability to uncover intriguing, universal scaling in the far dissipation range by computing high-order ($\leq 20\/$) structure…

The aim of this work is to prove an existence result on the mixed shell model extending the classic standard existence results from $\ell^2$ initial conditions to $\mu$-almost every initial conditions, where $\mu$ is a Gaussian measure on…

Drawing inspiration from transportation theory, in this work we introduce the notions of "well-structured" and "stable" Gibbs states and we investigate their implications for quantum thermodynamics and its resource theory approach via…

This work is a review with proofs of a group of results on the stochastic Burgers equation with small viscosity, obtained during the last two decades. These results jointly show that the equation makes a surprisingly good model of…

We show that multiscaling properties of developed turbulence in shell models, which lead to anomalous scaling exponents in the inertial range, are determined exclusively by instanton dynamics. Instantons represent correlated extreme events…

We study stochastic Burgers turbulence without pressure. We first show that the variational derivative of the Burgers equation is dependent on the velocity field, suggesting the existence of an anomaly. The anomaly is created by an operator…

Inspection of available data on the decay exponent for the kinetic energy of homogeneous and isotropic turbulence (HIT) shows that it varies by as much as 100\%. Measurements and simulations often show no correspondence with theoretical…

Differential rotation is known to suppress linear instabilities in fusion plasmas. However, even in the absence of growing eigenmodes, subcritical fluctuations that grow transiently can lead to sustained turbulence. Here transient growth of…
