This survey provides a concise yet comprehensive overview on enhanced dissipation phenomena, transitioning seamlessly from the physical principles underlying the interplay between advection and diffusion to their rigorous mathematical…
We examine the phenomenon of enhanced dissipation from the perspective of H\"ormander's classical theory of second order hypoelliptic operators [31]. Consider a passive scalar in a shear flow, whose evolution is described by the…
We consider the evolution of a passive scalar advected by a parallel shear flow in an infinite cylinder with bounded cross section, in arbitrary space dimension. The essential parameters of the problem are the molecular diffusivity $\nu$,…
We provide examples of initial data which saturate the enhanced diffusion rates proved for general shear flows which are H\"{o}lder regular or Lipschitz continuous with critical points, and for regular circular flows, establishing the…
We quantitatively study the interaction between diffusion and mixing in both the continuous, and discrete time setting. In discrete time, we consider a mixing dynamical system interposed with diffusion. In continuous time, we consider the…
We study diffusion and mixing in different linear fluid dynamics models, mainly related to incompressible flows. In this setting, mixing is a purely advective effect which causes a transfer of energy to high frequencies. When diffusion is…
We consider the advection equation on $\mathbb{T}^2$ with a real analytic and time-periodic velocity field that alternates between two Hamiltonian shears. Randomness is injected by alternating the vector field randomly in time between just…
Enhanced diffusion, which describes the accelerated spread of passive scalars due to the interaction between advection and molecular diffusion, has been extensively studied in simplified geometries, such as uniform shear and radial flows.…
Motivated in part by the work of Vanneste and Byatt-Smith, we study mixing and enhanced dissipation for the advection-diffusion equation with velocity field $\mathbf{u}(x,y,t)=(\sin(y-ct),0)$, a shear flow whose profile translates rigidly…
This paper explores the phenomena of enhanced dissipation and Taylor dispersion in solutions to the passive scalar equations subject to time-dependent shear flows. The hypocoercivity functionals with carefully tuned time weights are applied…
We consider the advection-diffusion equation \[ \phi_t + Au \cdot \nabla \phi = \Delta \phi, \qquad \phi(0,x)=\phi_0(x) \] on $\bbR^2$, with $u$ a periodic incompressible flow and $A\gg 1$ its amplitude. We provide a sharp characterization…
Bias plays an important role in the enhancement of diffusion in periodic potentials. Using the continuous-time random walk in the presence of a bias, we provide a novel mechanism for the enhancement of diffusion in a random energy…
We consider the advection-diffusion equation on $\mathbb{T}^2$ with a Lipschitz and time-periodic velocity field that alternates between two piecewise linear shear flows. We prove enhanced dissipation on the timescale $|\log \nu|$, where…
The Cahn--Hilliard equation is a classic model of phase separation in binary mixtures that exhibits spontaneous coarsening of the phases. We study the Cahn--Hilliard equation with an imposed advection term in order to model the stirring and…
We are concerned with flow enhanced mixing of passive scalars in the presence of diffusion. Under the assumption that the velocity gradient is suitably integrable, we provide upper bounds on the exponential rates of enhanced dissipation.…
We consider absorbing chemical reactions in a fluid flow modeled by the coupled advection-reaction-diffusion equations. In these systems, the interplay between chemical diffusion and fluid transportation causes the enhanced dissipation…
This paper investigates enhanced dissipation for a passive scalar advected by "very rough" horizontal shear flows, described by an advection-diffusion equation on the 2D torus. The authors extend results of Galeati and Gubinelli (2023) to…
Optimal control problems are inherently hard to solve as the optimization must be performed simultaneously with updating the underlying system. Starting from an initial guess, Howard's policy improvement algorithm separates the step of…
Diffusive transport of a particle in spatially correlated random energy landscape having exponential density of states has been considered. We exactly calculate the diffusivity in the nondispersive quasi-equilibrium transport regime and…
Motivated by mixing processes in analytical laboratories, this work investigates enhanced dissipation in non-autonomous flows. We study the evolution of concentrations governed by the advection-diffusion equation, where the velocity field…
