We investigate in isothermal MHD simulations the instability of toroidal magnetic fields resulting by the action of z-dependent differential rotation on a given axial field B^0 in a cylindrical enclosure where in particular the helicity of…
We study a turbulent helical dynamo in a periodic domain by solving the ideal magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations with the FLASH code using the divergence-cleaning eight-wave method and compare our results with direct numerical simulations…
Conserved quantities in geophysical flows play an important role in the characterisation of geophysical dynamics and aid the development of structure-preserving numerical methods. A significant family of conserved quantities is formed by…
A covariant action principle for ideal relativistic magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) in terms of natural Eulerian field variables is given. This is done by generalizing the covariant Poisson bracket theory of Marsden et al., which uses a…
Each H^k Sobolev inner product defines a Hamiltonian vector field X_k on the regular dual of the Lie algebra of the diffeomorphism group of the circle. We show that only X_0 and X_1 are bi-Hamiltonian relatively to a modified Lie-Poisson…
The Velocity-Vorticity (VV) formulation of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations has become popular in recent years, especially in numerical studies, due to its structural advantages. Recently, with L. Rebholz, we introduced a Voigt…
Magnetic helicity is an invariant of ideal magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) that encodes information on the topology of magnetic field lines. It has long been appreciated that magnetic topology is an important constraint for the evolution of…
A version of extended magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) that incorporates electron inertia is obtained by constructing an action principle. Unlike MHD which freezes in magnetic flux, the present theory freezes in an alternative flux related to the…
Magnetic helicity is a quantity of great importance in solar studies because it is conserved in ideal magneto-hydrodynamics. While many methods to compute magnetic helicity in Cartesian finite volumes exist, in spherical coordinates, the…
We present a structure-preserving and thermodynamically consistent numerical scheme for classical magnetohydrodynamics, incorporating viscosity, magnetic resistivity, heat transfer, and thermoelectric effect. The governing equations are…
Symmetries and Casimirs are studied for the Hamiltonian equations of radial compressible fluid flow in n>1 dimensions. An explicit determination of all Lie point symmetries is carried out, from which a complete classification of all maximal…
Strong incompressible three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic turbulence is investigated by means of high resolution direct numerical simulations. The simulations show that the configuration space is characterized by regions of positive and…
We show that a recently proposed [J. Fleischer and P.H. Diamond, {\em Phys. Rev. E}{\bf 58}, R2709 (1998)] one-dimensional Burgers-like model for magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) is in effect identical to existing models for drifting lines and…
We assemble the equations of general relativistic magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) in 3+1 form. These consist of the complete coupled set of Maxwell equations for the electromagnetic field, Einstein's equations for the gravitational field, and…
Helicity is a fundamental conserved quantity in physical systems governed by vector fields whose evolution is described by volume-preserving transformations on a three-manifold. Notable examples include inviscid, incompressible fluid flows,…
Let $(M,g)$ be a closed Riemannian manifold and $\sigma$ be a closed 2-form on $M$ representing an integer cohomology class. In this paper, using symplectic reduction, we show how the problem of existence of closed magnetic geodesics for…
We extend recent work on hydrodynamics with global multipolar symmetries -- known as "fracton hydrodynamics" -- to systems in which the multipolar symmetries are gauged. We refer to the latter as "fracton magnetohydrodynamics", in analogy…
The average helicity of a given electromagnetic field measures the difference between the number of left- and right-handed photons contained in the field. In here, the average helicity is derived using the conformally-invariant…
Nonlinear conservation laws such as the system of ideal magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) equations may develop singularities over time. In these situations, viscous regularization is a common approach to regain regularity of the solution. In this…
Whether or not the classical solutions of the two-dimensional (2D) incompressible magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) equations with only Laplacian magnetic diffusion (without velocity dissipation) are globally well-posed is a difficult problem and…
