We analyse numerically the critical behavior of an absorbing phase transition in a conserved lattice gas in an external field. The external field is realized as a spontaneous creation of active particles which drives the system away from…
Bounds on high-order derivative moments of a passive scalar are obtained for large values of the Schmidt number, $Sc$. The procedure is based on the approach pioneered by Batchelor for the viscous-convective range. The upper bounds for…
We study the statistics of single particle Lagrangian velocity in a shell model of turbulence. We show that the small scale velocity fluctuations are intermittent, with scaling exponents connected to the Eulerian structure function scaling…

Recently it was shown that the scaling dimension of the operator $\phi^n$ in $\lambda(\phi^*\phi)^2$ theory may be computed semi-classically at the Wilson-Fisher fixed point in $d=4-\epsilon$, for generic values of $\lambda n$ and this was…
We conduct a systematic numerical study of passive scalar structures in supersonic turbulent flows. We find that the degree of intermittency in the scalar structures increases only slightly as the flow changes from transonic to highly…
Perturbed projection for linear scaling solution of the coupled-perturbed self-consistent-field equations [Weber, Niklasson and Challacombe, Phys. Rev.\ Lett. {\bf 92}, 193002 (2004)] is extended to the computation of higher order static…

We define a (chaotic) deterministic variant of random multiplicative cascade models of turbulence. It preserves the hierarchical tree structure, thanks to the addition of infinitesimal noise. The zero-noise limit can be handled by…
Fractal decimation reduces the effective dimensionality of a flow by keeping only a (randomly chosen) set of Fourier modes whose number in a ball of radius $k$ is proportional to $k^D$ for large $k$. At the critical dimension D=4/3 there is…
A one-dimensional white-in-time passive scalar model is introduced. Strong and persistent structures are shown to be present. A perturbative expansion for the scaling exponents is performed around a Gaussian limit of the model. The…
It is shown that the description of anomalous scaling in turbulent systems requires the simultaneous use of two normalization scales. This phenomenon stems from the existence of two independent (infinite) sets of anomalous scaling exponents…
The statistical objects characterizing turbulence in real turbulent flows differ from those of the ideal homogeneous isotropic model.They containcontributions from various 2d and 3d aspects, and from the superposition ofinhomogeneous and…
The random intensity of noise approach to 1D Laval-Dubrulle-Nazarenko model is used to describe Lagrangian acceleration of a fluid particle in developed turbulence. Intensities of noises entering nonlinear Langevin equation are assumed to…

We investigate the performance of Lagrangian perturbation theory up to the second order for two scenarios of cosmological large-scale structure formation, SCDM (standard cold dark matter) and BSI (broken scale invariance). The latter model…
