Hyperuniform states of matter are correlated systems that are characterized by an anomalous suppression of long-wavelength (i.e., large-length-scale) density fluctuations compared to those found in garden-variety disordered systems, such as…
The linear stability of stratified two-phase flows in rectangular ducts is studied numerically. The linear stability analysis takes into account all possible infinitesimal three-dimensional disturbances and is carried out by solution of the…
We report an instability exhibited by a fluid system when coupling two distinct types of waves, both linearly damped. While none of them is unstable on its own, they amplify one another, resulting in a previously unreported convective…
The phase space trajectories of many body systems charateristic of simple fluids are highly unstable. We quantify this instability by a set of Lyapunov exponents, which are the rates of exponential divergence, or convergence, of initial…
In this article, we explore properties of pseudo entropy [1] in quantum field theories and spin systems from several approaches. Pseudo entropy is a generalization of entanglement entropy such that it depends on both an initial and final…
The classical theorems of inviscid stability have been extended for compressible flows past compliant surfaces. We consider normal modes imposed on a plane parallel compressible flow past compliant walls modelled as spring-backed plates and…
A new condition for the linear dissipative instability of the strong plane shock wave in an arbitrary medium is obtained. The instability of the shock is realized due to the flow instability behind its front, which is similar to the known…
C. N. Yang's ideas about local gauge symmetry and non-integrable phases have been enormously fertile sources of inspiration in fundamental physics and in the quantum theory of matter. They also arise naturally in describing the dynamics of…
In this work, we derive a new model for immiscible two-layer gas-liquid stratified flows in pipes with general cross sections. The bottom layer is occupied by an incompressible fluid in liquid phase with hydrodynamics based on a hydrostatic…
The existence of a paradoxical supersolid phase of matter, possessing the apparently incompatible properties of crystalline order and superfluidity, was predicted 50 years ago. Solid helium was the natural candidate, but there supersolidity…
We analyze experimentally the behavior of a non-Brownian, iso-dense suspension of spheres submitted to periodic square wave oscillations of the flow in a Hele-Shaw cell of gap $H$. We do observe an instability of the initially homogeneous…
We derive boundary conditions at interfaces (contact discontinuities) for a class of Lagrangian models describing, in particular, bubbly flows. We use these conditions to study Kelvin-Helmholtz' instability which develops in the flow of two…
Nonlinear normal modes are periodic orbits that survive in nonlinear many-body Hamiltonian systems, and their instability is crucial for relaxation dynamics. Here, we study the instability process of the $\pi/3$-mode in the…
It is shown that surface of a liquid consisting of several interpenetrating superfluids becomes unstable at some threshold. We demonstrate that the criterion for the onset of the instability changes in the presence of dissipative…
We study the inhibition of pattern formation in nonlinear optical systems using intracavity photonic crystals. We consider mean field models for single and doubly degenerate optical parametric oscillators. Analytical expressions for the new…
In a recent article (Forterre, PRL, 2001), we have reported a new instability observed in rapid granular flows down inclined planes that leads to the spontaneous formation of longitudinal vortices. From the experimental observations, we…
Building upon the recent findings regarding inverse phase transitions in the early universe, we present the first natural realisation of this phenomenon within a supersymmetry-breaking sector. We demonstrate that inverse hydrodynamics,…
Linear stability of stratified two-phase flows in horizontal channels to arbitrary wavenumber disturbances is studied. The problem is reduced to Orr-Sommerfeld equations for the stream function disturbances, defined in each sublayer and…
Fluid polyamorphism, the existence of multiple amorphous fluid states in a single-component system, has been observed or predicted in a variety of substances. A remarkable example of this phenomenon is the fluid-fluid phase transition in…
The present research is devoted to the problem of stability of the fluid flow moving in a channel with flexible walls and interacting with the walls, which are subject to traveling waves. Experimental data shows that the energy of the…
