A time-independent field theoretical framework for turbulence is suggested, based upon a variational principle for a stationary solution of the Fokker-Planck equation. We obtain a functional equation for the effective Action of this spatial field theory and investigate its general properties and some numerical solutions. The equation is completely universal, and allows for the scale invariant solutions in the inertial range. The critical indices are not fixed at the kinematical level, but rather should be found from certain eigenvalue conditions, as in the field theory of critical phenomena. Unlike the Wyld field theory, there are no divergences in our Feynman integrals, due to some magic cancellations. The simplest possible Gaussian approximation yields crude but still reasonable results (there are deviations from Kolmogorov scaling in 3 dimensions, but at 2.7544 dimensions it would be exact). Our approach allows us to study some new problems, such as spontaneous parity breaking in 3d turbulence. It turns out that with the appropriate helicity term added to the velocity correlation function, logarithmic infrared divergences arise in our field theory which effectively eliminates these terms. In order to build a quantitative theory of turbulence, one should consider more sophisticated Ansatz for the effective Action, which would require serious numerical work.

Two-point Green's function is measured on the manifolds of a 2-dimensional quantum gravity. The recursive sampling technique is used to generate the triangulations, lattice sizes being up to hundred thousand triangles. The grid Laplacian was inverted by means of the algebraic multi-grid solver. The free field model of the Quantum Gravity assumes the Gaussian behavior of Liouville field and curvature. We measured histograms as well as six momenta of these fields. Our results support the Gaussian assumption.
In this article we present a new formulation for coupling spectral element discretizations to finite difference and finite element discretizations addressing flow problems in very complicated geometries. A general ite...

The Ising model is stimulated on the manifolds of 2-dimensional quantum gravity, which are represented by fixed random triangulations (so-called quenched Ising model). Unlike the case of the Ising model on a dynamical random triangulation, there is no analytical prediction for the quenched case, since these manifolds do not have internal Hausdorff dimension and the problem cannot be formulated in matrix model language. The recursive sampling technique is used to generate the triangulations, lattice sizes being up to ten thousand triangles. The Metropolis algorithm was used for the spin update in order to obtain the initial estimation of the Curie point. After that we used the Wolff cluster algorithm in the critical region. We observed a second order phase transition, similar to that for the Ising model on a regular 2-dimensional lattice, and measured the critical exponents.

The dynamical triangulation model of 3-dimensional Quantum Gravity is defined and studied. We propose two different algorithms for numerical simulations, leading to consistent results. One is the 3-dimensional generalization of the bonds flip, another is more sophisticated algorithm, based on Schwinger–Dyson equations. We found such care necessary, because our results appear to be quite unexpected. We simulated up to 60000 tetrahedra and observed none of the feared pathologies like factorial growth of the partition function with volume, or collapse to the branched polymer phase. The volume of the Universe grows exponentially when the bare cosmological constant λ approaches the critical value λ c from above, but the closed Universe exists and has peculiar continuum limit. The Universe compressibility diverges as (λ − λ c ) −2 and the bare Newton constant linearly approaches negative critical value as λ goes to λ c , provided the average curvature is kept at zero. The fractal properties turned out to be the same, as in two dimensions, namely the effective Hausdorff dimension grows logarithmically with the size of the test geodesic sphere.

The response of transport measures (Nusselt number, drag and lift force) for two- and three-dimensional flow past a heated cylinder reaching a chaotic state is investigated numerically using a spectral element discretization at a Reynolds number Re = 500. The undisturbed two-dimensional flow remains periodic at this Reynolds number, unless a suitable forcing is applied on the naturally produced system. Three-dimensional simulations establish that three-dimensionality sets in at Re almost-equal-to 200. Successive supercritical states are established through a series of period-doublings, before a chaotic state is reached at a Re almost-equal-to 500. For the two-dimensional forced flow, all transport measures oscillate aperiodically in time and undergo a "crisis," i.e., a sudden and dramatic increase in their amplitude. The corresponding three-dimensional, naturally produced chaotic state corresponds to a less drastic change of the transport quantities with both rms and mean values lower than their two-dimensional counterparts.
It has been observed, in earlier computations of bifurcation diagrams for dissipative partial differential equations, that the use of certain explicit approximate inertial forms can give rise to numerical artifacts su...

We describe a new approach to the Monte-Carlo simulations of two-dimensional gravity. Standard dynamical triangulation technique was combined with results of direct enumeration of the cubic graphs. As a result we were able to build large (128K vertices) statistically independent random graphs directly. The quantitative correspondence between our results and those obtained by standard methods has been observed. The algorithm proved to be so efficient that we were able to conduct all the simulations, which usually require the most powerful computers, on an Iris workstation. An opportunity to generate large random graphs allowed us to observe that the internal geometry of random surfaces is more complicated than simple fractals. External geometry also proved to be rather peculiar.

We report first results of a large-scale simulation of two-dimensional quantum gravity using the dynamical triangulation model for systems of up to sixteen thousand triangles. Our results for the internal geometry show an unexpectedly complicated behavior of the internal volume as function of the internal radius. A simple fractal characterization is inadequate to describe the geometry of the states in the system.
