Self-consistent theory of turbulence

Model Representation for Self - Consistent - Field Theory of Isotropic Turbulence

In this paper, Langevin model equation is proposed for Fourier modes of velocity field of isotropic turbulence whose statistical properties are identical to those governed by equations of Self-Consistent-Field (SCF) theory of turbulence [J. R. Herring, Physics of Fluids 9, 2106 (1966)].

Self-consistent theory of polymerized membranes.

We study D-dimensional polymerized membranes embedded in d dimensions using a selfconsistent screening approximation. It is exact for large d to order 1/d, for any d to order ǫ = 4−D and for d = D. For flat physical membranes (D = 2, d = 3) it predicts a roughness exponent ζ = 0.590. For phantom membranes at the crumpling transition the size exponent is ν = 0.732. It yields identical lower crit...

Self-Consistent Theory of Bose-Condensed Systems

In the theory of Bose-condensed systems, there exists the well known problem, the Hohenberg-Martin dilemma of conserving versus gapless approximations. This dilemma is analysed and it is shown that it arises because of the internal inconsistency of the standard grand ensemble, as applied to Bose-systems with broken global gauge symmetry. A solution of the problem is proposed, based on the notio...
