By direct numerical simulations of the plane Couette flow (PCF) in a large computational domain, it is shown that an isolated turbulent band decays monotonically at low Reynolds numbers but experiences transient growth before the eventual relaminarization at moderate Reynolds numbers. The lower bound Reynolds number of the transient-growth regime is determined as 286. The width, length, and tilt angle of the iso- lated band structure are defined based on the disturbance kinetic energy in the mid-plane, and the geometric characteristics of the band can be described with a tilted rectangle. It is illustrated that before its eventual fragmentation, the isolated turbulent band decays in a style of longitudinal contraction, where the center, width, and tilt angle of the band keep almost constant but the band length contracts with a statistically constant velocity.
We show that the statistical properties of the large scales of the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation in the extended system limit can be understood in terms of the dynamical behavior of the same equation in a small finite...

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.
We establish a scale separation of Kolmogorov width type between subspaces of a given Banach space under the condition that a sequence of linear maps converges much faster on one of the subspaces. The general techniqu...

This paper presents a systematic approach for finding efficient boundary conditions for molecular dynamics simulations of crystalline solids. These boundary conditions effectively eliminate phonon reflection at the boundary and at the same time allow the thermal energy from the bath to be introduced to the system. Our starting point is the Mori-Zwanzig formalism [R. Zwanzig, J. Chem. Phys. 32, 1173 (1960); in Systems Far from Equilibrium, edited by L. Garrido (Interscience, New York, 1980); H. Mori, Prog. Theor. Phys. 33, 423 (1965)] for eliminating the thermal bath, but we take the crucial next step that goes beyond this formalism in order to obtain memory kernels that decay faster. An equivalent variational formulation allows us to find the optimal approximate boundary conditions, after specifying the spatial-temporal domain of dependence for the positions of the boundary atoms. Application to a one-dimensional chain, a two-dimensional Lennard-Jones system, and a three-dimensional model of α-iron with embedded atom potential is presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of this approach.
Models for learning probability distributions such as generative models and density estimators behave quite differently from models for learning functions. One example is found in the memorization phenomenon, namely t...
