چکیده
Global aspects of the motion of passive scalars in time-dependent incompressible fluid flows are well described by volume-preserving (Liouvillian) three-dimensional maps. In this paper the possible invariant structures in Liouvillian maps and the two most interesting nearlyintegrable cases are investigated. In addition, the fundamental role of invariant lines in organizing the dynamics of this type of system is exposed. Bifurcations involving the destruction of some invariant lines and tubes and the creation of new ones are described in detail.

We compute the mass spectrum of the SU(2) adjoint Higgs model in 2 + 1 dimensions at several points located in the (metastable) confinement region of its phase diagram. We find a dense spectrum consisting of an almost unaltered repetition of the glueball spectrum of the pure gauge theory, and additional bound states of adjoint scalars. For the parameters chosen, the model represents the effecti...
متن کاملGeometric features of the mixing of passive scalars at high Schmidt numbers.
The mixing of passive scalars of decreasing diffusivity, advected in each case by the same three-dimensional Navier-Stokes turbulence, is studied. The mixing becomes more isotropic with decreasing diffusivity. The local flow in the vicinity of steepest negative and positive scalar gradients is in general different, and its behavior is studied for various values of the scalar diffusivity. Mixing...
متن کاملThe Form Factors of the Gauge-Invariant Three-Gluon Vertex
The gauge-invariant three-gluon vertex obtained from the pinch technique is characterized by thirteen nonzero form factors, which are given in complete generality for unbroken gauge theory at one loop. The results are given in d dimensions using both dimensional regularization and dimensional reduction, including the effects of massless gluons and arbitrary representations of massive gauge boso...
متن کامل0091 on S - 3 like Four - Dimensional Finsler Spaces
In 1977, M. Matsumoto and R. Miron [9] constructed an orthonormal frame for an n-dimensional Finsler space, called ‘Miron frame’. The present authors [1, 2, 3, 10, 11] discussed four-dimensional Finsler spaces equipped with such frame. M. Matsumoto [7, 8] proved that in a three-dimensional Berwald space, all the main scalars are h-covariant constants and the h-connection vector vanishes. He als...
