We introduce a 3D multiscale kinematic velocity field as a model to simulate Lagrangian turbulent dispersion. The incompressible velocity field is a nonlinear deterministic function, periodic in space and time, that generates chaotic mixing…
Mixing in fully developed incompressible turbulent flows is known to lead to a cascade of discontinuity fronts of passive scalar fields. A one-dimensional (1D) variant of Baker's map is developed, capturing the main mechanism responsible…
The anomalous scaling of correlation functions in the turbulent statistics of active scalars (like temperature in turbulent convection) is understood in terms of an auxiliary passive scalar which is advected by the same turbulent velocity…
We construct, from first principles, a covariant local model for scalar fractonic matter coupled to a symmetric tensor gauge field. The free gauge field action is just the one of the Blasi-Maggiore model. The scalar sector, describing…
Lagrangian acceleration has been investigated both experimentally and numerically in the past, and it has been shown to exhibit extreme fluctuations, which have been rationalized as events in which tracer particles get trapped into vortical…
Advection-diffusion problems of magnetic field and tracer field are analyzed using the field theoretic perturbative renormalization group. Both advected fields are considered to be passive, i.e., without any influence on the turbulent…
As a mathematical model of high-speed flow and shock wave propagation in a complex multimaterial setting, Lagrangian hydrodynamics is characterized by moving meshes, advection-dominated solutions, and moving shock fronts with sharp…
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…

We make a comparative analysis of some recent one-dimensional Langevin models of the acceleration of a Lagrangian fluid particle in developed turbulent flow. The class of models characterized by random intensities of noises (RIN models)…
We investigate the fixed points of a shell model for the turbulent advection of passive scalars introduced Jensen, Paladin and Vulpiani. The passive scalar field is driven by the velocity field of the popular GOY shell model. The scaling…
We study effects of turbulent mixing on the random growth of an interface in the problem of the deposition of a substance on a substrate. The growth is modelled by the well-known Kardar--Parisi--Zhang model. The turbulent advecting velocity…
A recently developed linear algebraic method for the computation of perturbation expansion coefficients to large order is applied to the problem of a hydrogenic atom in a magnetic field. We take as the zeroth order approximation the $D…
We investigate the scaling properties a model of passive vector turbulence with pressure and in the presence of a large-scale anisotropy. The leading scaling exponents of the structure functions are proven to be anomalous. The anisotropic…
We address the question of perturbative consistency in the scalar fishnet models presented by Caetano, Gurdogan and Kazakov\cite{Gurdogan:2015csr, Caetano:2016ydc}. We argue that their 3-dimensional $\phi^{6}$ fishnet model becomes…
We discuss the effects of finite perturbations in fully developed turbulence by introducing a measure of the chaoticity degree associated to a given scale of the velocity field. This allows one to determine the predictability time for…
We look at various correlation functions, which include those that involve both the velocity and the vorticity fields, in two-dimensional (2D) isotropic homogeneous unforced turbulence. We adopt the more intuitive approach due to Kolmogorov…
