Intermittency in Burgers' Turbulence
Physical Review Letters. 1997. Vol. 78. No. 8. P. 1452-1455.
We consider the tails of probability density function (PDF) for the velocity that satisfies Burgers equation driven by a Gaussian large-scale force. The saddle-point approximation is employed in the path integral so that the calculation of the PDF tails boils down to finding the special field-force configuration (instanton) that realizes the extremum of probability. For the PDFs of velocity and its derivatives u(k)=∂kxu, the general formula is found: lnP(|u(k)|)∝−(|u(k)|/Rek)3/(k+1).

Leading terms of the asymptotic behavior of the pair and higher order correlation functions for finite times and large distances have been calculated for the Burgers equation involving thermal noise. It is shown that an intermittence phenomenon occurs, whereby certain correlation functions are much greater than their reducible parts. ...

For the field u(x, t) governed by the Burgers equation with a thermal noise, short-time asymptotics
of multipoint correlators are obtained. Their exponential parts are independent of the correlator number. This
means that they are determined by a single rare fluctuation and exhibit the intermittency phenomenon ...

We analyze the kinematic dynamo in a conducting fluid where the stationary shear flow is accompanied by relatively weak random velocity fluctuations. The diffusionless and diffusion regimes are described. The growth rates of the magnetic field moments are related to the statistical characteristics of the flow describing the divergence of Lagrangian trajectories. A degree of ...

We describe the method for finding the non-Gaussian tails of the probability distribution function (PDF) for solutions of a stochastic differential equation, such as the convection equation for a passive scalar, the random driven Navier-Stokes equation, etc. The existence of such tails is generally regarded as a manifestation of the intermittency phenomenon. Our formalism is ...

Abstract: We consider (1+3)-dimensional domain wall solutions of heterotic supergravity on a six-dimensional warped nearly Kaehler manifold $X_6$ in the presence of gravitational and gauge instantons of tanh-kink type as constructed in [1]. We include first order alpha' corrections to the heterotic supergravity action, which imply a non-trivial Yang-Mills sector and Bianchi identity. We present ...

Chaotic variations in flow speed up mixing of scalar fields via intensified stirring. This paper addresses the statistical properties of a passive scalar field mixing in a regular shear flow with random fluctuations against its background. We consider two-dimensional flow with shear component dominating over smooth fluctuations. Such flow is supposed to model passive scalar ...

We compute analytically the probability distribution function PP(ε) of the dissipation field ε=(∇θ)2 of a passive scalar θ advected by a d-dimensional random flow, in the limit of large Peclet and Prandtl numbers (Batchelor–Kraichnan regime). The tail of the distribution is a stretched exponential: for ε→∞, ln PP(ε)∼−(d2ε)1/3. ...

A model of scalar turbulent advection in compressible flow is analytically investigated. It is shown that, depending on the dimensionality d of space and the degree of compressibility of the smooth advecting velocity field, the cascade of the scalar is direct or inverse. If d>4 the cascade is always direct. For a small enough degree of compressibility, the cascade ...

The free-energy distribution function of an elastic string in a quenched random potential, PLF, is investigated
with the help of the optimal fluctuation approach. The form of the far-right tail of PLF is found by
constructing the exact solution of the nonlinear saddle-point equations describing the asymptotic form of the
optimal fluctuation. The solution of the problem is ...

Kinematic dynamo theory is presented here for turbulent conductive fluids. We describe how inhomogeneous magnetic fluctuations are generated below the viscous scale of turbulence where the spatial smoothness of the velocity permits a systematic analysis of the Lagrangian path dynamics. We find analytically the moments and multipoint correlation functions of the magnetic field at small ...

Random advection of a Lagrangian tracer scalar field u (t,x) by a one-dimensional, spatially smooth and
short-correlated in time velocity field is considered. Scalar fluctuations are maintained by a source concentrated
at the integral scale L. The statistical properties of both scalar differences and the dissipation field are analytically
determined, exploiting the dynamical formulation of the model. The ...

We investigate the effect of interacting quantum phase slips on persistent current and its fluctuations in ultrathin superconducting nanowires and nanorings pierced by the external magnetic flux. We derive the effective action for these systems and map the original problem onto an effective sine-Gordon theory on torus. We evaluate both the flux dependent persistent current ...

The issue of accounting of the wave breaking phenomenon in direct numerical simulations of oceanic waves is discussed. It is emphasized that this problem is crucial for the deterministic description of waves, and also for the dynamical calculation of extreme wave statistical characteristics, such as rogue wave height probability, asymmetry, etc. The conditions for accurate ...

We present a summary of current knowledge about the AGT relations for conformal blocks with additional insertion of the simplest degenerate operator, and a special choice of the corresponding intermediate dimension, when the conformal blocks satisfy hypergeometric-type differential equations in position of the degenerate operator. A special attention is devoted to representation of conformal block ...

The exciton valley dynamics in van der Waals heterostructures with transition metal dichalcogenide monolayers is driven by the long-range exchange interaction between the electron and the hole in the exciton. It couples the states active in the opposite circular polarizations resulting in the longitudinal-transverse splitting of excitons propagating in the monolayer plane. Here we study ...

We present an exact analytical solution of the nonlinear shallow water theory for wave run-up in inclined channels of arbitrary cross-section, which generalizes previous studies on wave run-up for a plane beach and channels of parabolic cross-section. The solution is found using a hodograph-type transform, which extends the well-known Carrier–Greenspan transform for wave run-up on ...

We study analytically and numerically the distribution of granular temperatures in granular mixtures for
different dissipation mechanisms of inelastic inter-particle collisions. Both driven and force-free systems
are analyzed. We demonstrate that the simplified model of a constant restitution coefficient fails to
predict even qualitatively a granular temperature distribution in a homogeneous cooling state. At the
same time we reveal ...

states when N receivers are separately located. In this report, we propose optical designs that can
perform sequential state discrimination of two coherent states. For this purpose, we consider not

probabilities. Since ...
