We study the statistics of fluid (gas) density and concentration of passive tracer particles (dust) in compressible turbulence. We raise the question of whether the fluid density which is an active field that reacts back on the transporting…
A stochastic model for behavioral changes by imitative pair interactions of individuals is developed. `Microscopic' assumptions on the specific form of the imitative processes lead to a stochastic version of the game dynamical equations.…
Stochastic systems often exhibit multiple viable metastable states that are long-lived. Over very long timescales, fluctuations may push the system to transition between them, drastically changing its macroscopic configuration. In realistic…
Equal-time scaling exponents in fully developed turbulence typically exhibit non anomalous scaling in the inverse cascade of two-dimensional (2D) turbulence and anomalous scaling in three dimensions. We demonstrate that multiscaling is not…
Stochastic models for spatio-temporal transport face a critical trade-off between physical realism and interpretability. The advection model with a single constant velocity is interpretable but physically limited by its perfect correlation…
Non-local models of stellar convection can account for mixing effects in regions adjacent to convectively unstable layers and for changes to the mean temperature structure caused by free, buoyancy driven convection. The physical…
We introduce a class of stochastic advection problems amenable to analysis of turbulent transport. The statistics of the flow field are represented as a continuous time Markov process, a choice that captures the intuitive notion of…
The development of a mechanics of non-differentiable paths suggested by Scale Relativity results in a foundation of Quantum Mechanics including Schr\"odinger's equation and all the other axioms under the assumption the path…
Steady statistics of a passive scalar advected by a random two-dimensional flow of an incompressible fluid is described in the range of scales between the correlation length of the flow and the diffusion scale. That corresponds to the…
We examine the dynamics of inflation driven by multiple, interacting scalar fields and derive a multi field version of the Hubble slow roll expansion. We show that the properties of this expansion naturally generalize those of the single…
Spontaneous stochasticity is a modern paradigm for turbulent transport at infinite Reynolds numbers. It suggests that tracer particles advected by rough turbulent flows and subject to additional thermal noise, remain non-deterministic in…
Strong dynamical scaling violations exist in quenched two-dimensional systems with vector O(3) order parameters. These systems support non-singular topologically stable configurations (skyrmions). By tuning the stability of isolated…
The steady state reached by a system of particles sliding down a fluctuating surface has interesting properties. Particle clusters form and break rapidly, leading to a broad distribution of sizes and large fluctuations. The density-density…
Spontaneous stochasticity refers to the emergence of intrinsic randomness in deterministic systems under singular limits, a phenomenon conjectured to be fundamental in turbulence. Armstrong and Vicol recently constructed a deterministic,…
The field-theoretic renormalization group (RG) and the operator product expansion are applied to the model of a divergence-free vector quantity, passively advected by the ``synthetic'' turbulent flow with a finite correlation time. The…
Passive scalar transport in a spatially-extended background of roll convection is considered in the time-periodic regime. The latter arises due to the even oscillatory instability of the cell lateral boundary, here accounted for by…
The model of landscape erosion, introduced in [{\it Phys. Rev. Lett.} {\bf 80}: 4349 (1998); {\it J. Stat. Phys.} {\bf 93}: 477 (1998)] and modified in [{\it Theor. Math. Phys.} - in press; arXiv:1602.00432], is advected by anisotropic…
We investigate instabilities in a stochastic mathematical model of cochlear dynamics. The cochlea is modeled as a spatio-temporal dynamical system made up of a spatially distributed array of coupled oscillators, together with the cochlear…
Models of one-dimensional driven diffusive systems sometimes exhibit an abrupt increase of the correlation length to an anomalously large but finite value as the parameters of the model are varied. This behavior may be misinterpreted as a…
Motivated by mapping from a stochastic system with spatially random rates, we consider disordered non-conserving free-fermion systems using a scaling procedure for the equations of motion. This approach demonstrates disorder-induced…
