Time-independent Hamiltonian flows are viewed as geodesic flows in a curved manifold, so that the onset of chaos hinges on properties of the curvature two-form entering into the Jacobi equation. Attention focuses on ensembles of orbit…

We present a numerical study of a generalized two-dimensional Swift-Hohenberg model of spiral pattern formation in Rayleigh-B\'enard convection in a non-Boussinesq fluid. We demonstrate for the first time that a model for convective motion…

Rayleigh-B\'{e}nard convection is studied and quantitative comparisons are made, where possible, between theory and experiment by performing numerical simulations of the Boussinesq equations for a variety of experimentally realistic…

The spatiotemporal dynamics of an excitable medium with multiple spiral defects is shown to vary smoothly with system size from short-lived transients for small systems to extensive chaos for large systems. A comparison of the Lyapunov…

In this paper a rigorous proof of the mean field limit for a pedestrian flow model in two dimensions is given by using a probabilistic method. The model under investigation is an interacting particle system coupled to the eikonal equation…

The process of pattern formation in the two dimensional Swift-Hohenberg equation is examined through numerical and analytic methods. Dynamic scaling relationships are developed for the collective ordering of convective rolls in the limit of…

We discuss recent results obtained for the Hamiltonian Mean Field model. The model describes a system of N fully-coupled particles in one dimension and shows a second-order phase transition from a clustered phase to a homogeneous one when…

The skew mean curvature flow(SMCF), which origins from the study of fluid dynamics, describes the evolution of a codimension two submanifold along its binormal direction. We study the basic properties of the SMCF and prove the existence of…

Scattering through natural porous formations (by far the most ubiquitous example of disordered media) represents a formidable tool to identify effective flow and transport properties. In particular, we are interested here in the scattering…

We analyze the linear stability of monoclinal traveling waves on a constant incline, which connect uniform flowing regions of differing depths. The classical shallow-water equations are employed, subject to a general resistive drag term.…

We study hexagon patterns in non-Boussinesq convection of a thin rotating layer of water. For realistic parameters and boundary conditions we identify various linear instabilities of the pattern. We focus on the dynamics arising from an…

The long-time behavior of stochastic Hamilton-Jacobi equations is analyzed, including the stochastic mean curvature flow as a special case. In a variety of settings, new and sharpened results are obtained. Among them are (i) a…

The curvature field is measured from tracer particle trajectories in a two-dimensional fluid flow that exhibits spatiotemporal chaos, and is used to extract the hyperbolic and elliptic points of the flow. These special points are pinned to…

We adopt an input-output approach to analyze the effect of persistent white-in-time structured stochastic base flow perturbations on the mean-square properties of the linearized Navier-Stokes equations. Such base flow variations enter the…

We show some computations related to the motion by mean curvature flow of a submanifold inside an ambient Riemannian manifold evolving by Ricci or backward Ricci flow. Special emphasis is given to the possible generalization of Huisken's…

Motivated by recent experimental studies of Bodenschatz et al. [E. Bodenschatz, J.R. de Bruyn, G. Ahlers and D.S. Cannell, Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 67}, 3078 (1991) ], we present a numerical study of a generalized two dimensional…

We study the kinetic mean field Langevin dynamics under the functional convexity assumption of the mean field energy functional. Using hypocoercivity, we first establish the exponential convergence of the mean field dynamics and then show…

We study the evolution of a localized perturbation in a chemical system with multiple homogeneous steady states, in the presence of stirring by a fluid flow. Two distinct regimes are found as the rate of stirring is varied relative to the…

We investigate spatial and temporal cross-correlations between streamwise and normal velocity components in three shear flows: a low-dimensional model for vortex-streak interactions, direct numerical simulations for a nearly homogeneous…

Chaos is an inherently dynamical phenomenon traditionally studied for trajectories that are either permanently erratic or transiently influenced by permanently erratic ones lying on a set of measure zero. The latter gives rise to the final…
