We show that in two dimensions the incompressible Euler equations can be re-expressed in terms of an abelian gauge theory with a Chern-Simons term. The magnetic field corresponds to fluid vorticity and the electric field is the product of…
Physical models of intermittency in fully developed turbulence employ many phenomenological concepts such as active volume, region, eddy, energy accumulation set, etc, used to describe non-uniformity of the energy cascade. In this paper we…
The fluids and polymers have different fundamental symmetries. Namely, the Lagrangian relabeling symmetry of fluids is absent for polymers (while the translational and rotational symmetries are still present). This fact results in…
We study the emergence of gradient flows in Wasserstein distance as high friction limits of an abstract Euler flow generated by an energy functional. We develop a relative energy calculation that connects the Euler flow to the gradient flow…

We devise an iterative scheme for numerically calculating dynamical two-point correlation functions in integrable many-body systems, in the Eulerian scaling limit. Expressions for these were originally derived in Ref. [1] by combining the…
We present numerical simulations of the three-dimensional Galerkin truncated incompressible Euler equations that we integrate in time while regularizing the solution by applying a wavelet-based denoising. For this, at each time step, the…
Dissipation anomaly-the persistence of finite energy dissipation in the inviscid limit-is a hallmark of turbulence, sometimes regarded as the "zeroth law" of turbulent flows. Here, we demonstrate that this phenomenon is not exclusive to…
Two-dimensional turbulence governed by the so-called $\alpha$ turbulence equations, which include the surface quasi-geostrophic equation ($\alpha=1$), the Navier--Stokes system ($\alpha=2$), and the governing equation for a shallow flow on…
We describe ideal incompressible hydrodynamics on the hyperbolic plane which is an infinite surface of constant negative curvature. We derive equations of motion, general symmetries and conservation laws, and then consider turbulence with…
The Euler-$\alpha$ equations model the averaged motion of an ideal incompressible fluid when filtering over spatial scales smaller than $\alpha$. We show that there exists $\beta>1$ such that weak solutions to the two and three dimensional…
We study the dynamics of inertial particles in turbulence using datasets obtained from both direct numerical simulations and laboratory experiments of turbulent swirling flows. By analyzing time series of particle velocity increments at…
The addition of polymers fundamentally alters the dynamics of turbulent flows in a way that defies Kolmogorov predictions. However, we now present a formalism that reconciles our understanding of polymeric turbulence with the classical…
We consider the binormal flow equation, which is a model for the dynamics of vortex filaments in Euler equations. Geometrically it is a flow of curves in three dimensions, explicitly connected to the 1-D Schr\"odinger map with values on the…
We consider uniformly rotating incompressible Euler and Navier-Stokes equations. We study the suppression of vertical gradients of Lagrangian displacement ("vertical" refers to the direction of the rotation axis). We employ a formalism that…
The small-scale velocity gradient is connected to fundamental properties of turbulence at the large scales. By neglecting the viscous and nonlocal pressure Hessian terms, we derive a restricted Euler model for the turbulent flow along an…
We study the convergence rate of the solutions of the incompressible Euler-$\alpha$, an inviscid second-grade complex fluid, equations to the corresponding solutions of the Euler equations, as the regularization parameter $\alpha$…
The statistical properties of turbulent flows are fundamentally different from those of systems at equilibrium due to the presence of an energy flux from the scales of injection to those where energy is dissipated by the viscous forces: a…
