Chaotic dynamics of low-dimensional systems, such as Lorenz or R\"ossler flows, is guided by the infinity of periodic orbits embedded in their strange attractors. Whether this also be the case for the infinite-dimensional dynamics of…
In laboratory studies and numerical simulations, we observe clear signatures of unstable time-periodic solutions in a moderately turbulent quasi-two-dimensional flow. We validate the dynamical relevance of such solutions by demonstrating…
We present a new method for generating robust guesses for unstable periodic orbits (UPOs) by post-processing turbulent data using dynamic mode decomposition (DMD). The approach relies on the identification of near-neutral, repeated…
A dynamical system description of the transition process in shear flows with no linear instability starts with a knowledge of exact coherent solutions, among them travelling waves (TWs) and relative periodic orbits (RPOs). We describe a…
Starting with turbulence that explores a wide region in phase space, we discover several relative periodic orbits (RPOs) embedded within a subregion of the chaotic turbulent saddle. We also extract directly from simulation, several…
Unstable periodic orbits (UPOs) are the non-chaotic, dynamical building blocks of spatio-temporal chaos, motivating a first-principles based theory for turbulence ever since the discovery of deterministic chaos. Despite their key role in…
The motion of point vortices constitutes an especially simple class of solutions to Euler's equation for two dimensional, inviscid, incompressible, and irrotational fluids. In addition to their intrinsic mathematical importance, these…
We propose a novel framework for approximating the statistical properties of turbulent flows by combining variational methods for the search of unstable periodic orbits with resolvent analysis for dimensionality reduction. Traditional…
Periodic orbits are important objects of discrete dynamical systems, but finding them is not always easy. We present a self-contained introductory account, aimed at non-experts, to prove their existence and study their stability using the…
We investigate the convergence towards periodic orbits in discrete dynamical systems. We examine the probability that a randomly chosen point converges to a particular neighborhood of a periodic orbit in a fixed number of iterations, and we…
Periodic orbits are among the simplest non-equilibrium solutions to dynamical systems, and they play a significant role in our modern understanding of the rich structures observed in many systems. For example, it is known that embedded…
In this work, we discuss the long-time behavior of non-rotating quasi-2D viscous flows over topographies. We develop a novel theoretical and numerical framework for the analysis of these flows, derived as a dimensional reduction of the 3D…
Iterative coarse-graining procedure based on Wyld's perturbation expansion is applied to the problem of Navier-Stokes turbulence. It is shown that the low-order calculation gives the fixed-point Reynolds number $ Re_{fp}$ (coupling…
For the incompressible Navier--Stokes equation, the Reynolds number ($\mathrm{Re}$) is a dimensionless parameter quantifying the relative importance of inertial over viscous forces. In the low-$\mathrm{Re}$ regime ($\mathrm{Re} \ll 1$), the…
Temporally periodic solutions are extracted numerically from forced box turbulence with high symmetry. Since they are unstable to small perturbations, they are not found by forward integration but can be captured by Newton-Raphson…
Unstable periodic orbits (UPOs) are a valuable tool for studying chaotic dynamical systems, as they allow one to distill their dynamical structure. We consider here the Lorenz 1963 model with the classic parameters' value. We investigate…
Unstable periodic orbits (UPOs) are believed to be the underlying dynamical structures of spatio-temporal chaos and turbulence. Finding these UPOs is however notoriously difficult. Matrix-free loop convergence algorithms deform entire…
In this paper we prove the asymptotic stability of the Kolmogorov flow on a non-square torus for perturbations $\omega_0$ satisfying $\|\omega_0\|_{H^3}\ll\nu^{1/3}$, where $0<\nu\ll1$ is the viscosity. Kolmogorov flows are important…
This paper demonstrates the efficient extraction of unstable recurrent flows from two-dimensional turbulence by using nonlinear triads to diagnose recurrence in direct numerical simulations. Nearly recurrent episodes are identified from…
Tobasco et al. [Physics Letters A, 382:382-386, 2018; see https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physleta.2017.12.023] recently suggested that trajectories of ODE systems that optimize the infinite-time average of a certain observable can be localized…
