Ja n 20 09 Uniform shrinking and expansion under isotropic Brownian flows

چکیده
We study some finite time transport properties of isotropic Brownian flows. Under a certain nondegeneracy condition on the potential spectral measure, we prove that uniform shrinking or expansion of balls under the flow over some bounded time interval can happen with positive probability. We also provide a control theorem for isotropic Brownian flows with drift. Finally, we apply the above results to show that under the nondegeneracy condition the length of a rectifiable curve evolving in an isotropic Brownian flow with strictly negative top Lyapunov exponent converges to zero as t → ∞ with positive probability.

Linear Expansion of Isotropic Brownian Flows
We consider an isotropic Brownian flow on R for d ≥ 2 with a positive Lyapunov exponent, and show that any nontrivial connected set almost surely contains points whose distance from the origin under the flow grows linearly with time. The speed is bounded below by a fixed constant, which may be computed from the covariance tensor of the flow. This complements earlier work, which showed that stoc...
متن کامل2 1 Se p 20 09 Attractors and Expansion for Brownian Flows
We show that a stochastic flow which is generated by a stochastic differential equation on R with bounded volatility has a random attractor provided that the drift component in the direction towards the origin is larger than a certain strictly positive constant β outside a large ball. Using a similar approach, we provide a lower bound for the linear growth rate of the inner radius of the image ...

We consider global geometric properties of a codimension one manifold embedded in Euclidean space, as it evolves under an isotropic and volume preserving Brownian flow of diffeomorphisms. In particular, we obtain expressions describing the expected rate of growth of the Lipschitz-Killing curvatures, or intrinsic volumes, of the manifold under the flow. These results shed new light on some of th...

In the present investigation, the magnetohydrodynamic Falkner-Skan flow of tangent hyperbolic nanofluids over a stretching/shrinking wedge with variable suction, internal heat generation/absorption and chemical reaction with activation energy have been scrutinized. Nanofluid model is composed of “Brownian motion’’ and “Thermophoresis’’. Transformed non-dimensional coupled non-linear equations a...
متن کاملExternal and Internal Incompressible Viscous Flows Computation using Taylor Series Expansion and Least Square based Lattice Boltzmann Method
The lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) has recently become an alternative and promising computational fluid dynamics approach for simulating complex fluid flows. Despite its enormous success in many practical applications, the standard LBM is restricted to the lattice uniformity in the physical space. This is the main drawback of the standard LBM for flow problems with complex geometry. Several app...
