We analyse the motion of a system of particles suspended in a fluid which has a random velocity field. There are coagulating and non-coagulating phases. We show that the phase transition is related to a Kramers problem, and use this to…
The renormalization group and operator product expansion are applied to the model of a passive scalar quantity advected by the Gaussian self-similar velocity field with finite, and not small, correlation time. The inertial-range energy…

The low-lying neutral excitation spectrum of the incompressible quantum Hall fluid at $\nu=5/2$ is investigated by inelastic light scattering. Gapped modes are observable only in a very narrow filling factor range centered at 5/2 at…
We study a multi-dimensional nonlocal active scalar equation of the form $u_t+v\cdot \nabla u=0$ in $\mathbb R^+\times \mathbb R^d$, where $v=\Lambda^{-2+\alpha}\nabla u$ with $\Lambda=(-\Delta)^{1/2}$. We show that when $\alpha\in (0,2]$…
We consider models of gradient type, which are the densities of a collection of real-valued random variables $\phi :=\{\phi_x: x \in \Lambda\}$ given by $Z^{-1}\exp({-\sum\nolimits_{j \sim k}V(\phi_j-\phi_k)})$. We focus our study on the…
We show that a steady-state solution ${\bf U}$ to the system of equations of a Navier-Stokes flow past a rotating body is nonlinearly unstable if the associated linear operator $\cal L$ has a part of the spectrum in the half-plane…
Local structures, beyond the well-known `frozen-in' to the barotropic flows of the generalized vorticities, of the two-fluid model of plasma flows are presented. More general non-barotropic situations are also considered. A modified Euler…

We discuss the quantization of an unstable field through the construction of a "one-particle Hilbert space." The system considered here is a neutral scalar field evolving over a globally hyperbolic static spacetime and subject to a…
The anomalous scaling behavior of the n-th order correlation functions ${\cal F}_n$ of the Kraichnan model of turbulent passive scalar advection is believed to be dominated by the homogeneous solutions (zero-modes) of the Kraichnan equation…

We use direct numerical simulations to compute structure functions, scaling exponents, probability density functions and turbulent transport coefficients of passive scalars in turbulent rotating helical and non-helical flows. We show that…
The influence of an external electric field on the spin dynamics of an electrically neutral Fermi liquid is considered, the mechanism of such an influence being the relativistic spin-orbital interaction. As a result, Leggett's equations for…
In this paper, we introduce an inverse problem of a Schr\"odinger type variable nonlocal elliptic operator $(-\nabla\cdot(A(x)\nabla))^{s}+q)$, for $0<s<1$. We determine the unknown bounded potential $q$ from the exterior partial…
The evolution of a passive scalar field is considered for a slowly varying stratified medium, which is convected in an incompressible sheared flow with many overlapping static flux islands. Within the quasilinear/random phase approximation,…
