Turbulence spreading by resonant wave-wave interactions: A fractional kinetics approach.

This paper is concerned with the processes of spatial propagation and penetration of turbulence from the regions where it is locally excited into initially laminar regions. The phenomenon has come to be known as "turbulence spreading" and witnessed a renewed attention in the literature recently. Here, we propose a comprehensive theory of turbulence spreading based on fractional kinetics.

Dynamical chaos in nonlinear Schrödinger models with subquadratic power nonlinearity.

We devise an analytical method to deal with a class of nonlinear Schrödinger lattices with random potential and subquadratic power nonlinearity. An iteration algorithm is proposed based on the multinomial theorem, using Diophantine equations and a mapping procedure onto a Cayley graph. Based on this algorithm, we are able to obtain several hard results pertaining to asymptotic spreading of the nonlinear field beyond a perturbation theory approach.

General Criminality as a Marker of Heterogeneity in Domestically Violent Men: Differences in Trauma History, Psychopathology, Neurocognitive Functioning, and Psychophysiology.

This study examined whether involvement in general criminal behavior was a useful marker of critical historic, psychological, and cognitive aspects of heterogeneity in domestically violent men. Two subgroups of domestically violent men, those with ( = 56) and without ( = 54) a history of criminal involvement, were compared with a group of nonviolent men ( = 82) on internalizing psychopathology, substance abuse, maltreatment in the family of origin, cognitive and executive functioning, and psychophysiological factors. Results found that domestically violent criminal men scored higher than the other two groups on a number of measures including history of childhood violence exposure, childhood externalizing behavior, and adult internalizing psychopathology.

Subdiffusive Lévy flights in quantum nonlinear Schrödinger lattices with algebraic power nonlinearity.

We report a theoretical result concerning the dynamics of an initially localized wave packet in quantum nonlinear Schrödinger lattices with a disordered potential. A class of nonlinear lattices with subquadratic power nonlinearity is considered. We show that there exists a parameter range for which an initially localized wave packet can spread along the lattice to unlimited distances, but the phenomenon is purely quantum and is hindered in the corresponding classical lattices.

Lévy flights on a comb and the plasma staircase.

We formulate the problem of confined Lévy flight on a comb. The comb represents a sawtoothlike potential field V(x), with the asymmetric teeth favoring net transport in a preferred direction. The shape effect is modeled as a power-law dependence V(x)∝|Δx|^{n} within the sawtooth period, followed by an abrupt drop-off to zero, after which the initial power-law dependence is reset.

Destruction of Anderson localization in quantum nonlinear Schrödinger lattices.

The four-wave interaction in quantum nonlinear Schrödinger lattices with disorder is shown to destroy the Anderson localization of waves, giving rise to unlimited spreading of the nonlinear field to large distances. Moreover, the process is not thresholded in the quantum domain, contrary to its "classical" counterpart, and leads to an accelerated spreading of the subdiffusive type, with the dispersion 〈(Δn)^{2}〉∼t^{1/2} for t→+∞. The results, presented here, shed light on the origin of subdiffusion in systems with a broad distribution of relaxation times.

Topological approximation of the nonlinear Anderson model.

We study the phenomena of Anderson localization in the presence of nonlinear interaction on a lattice. A class of nonlinear Schrödinger models with arbitrary power nonlinearity is analyzed. We conceive the various regimes of behavior, depending on the topology of resonance overlap in phase space, ranging from a fully developed chaos involving Lévy flights to pseudochaotic dynamics at the onset of delocalization.

Pseudochaos and low-frequency percolation scaling for turbulent diffusion in magnetized plasma.

The basic physics properties and simplified model descriptions of the paradigmatic "percolation" transport in low-frequency electrostatic (anisotropic magnetic) turbulence are theoretically analyzed. The key problem being addressed is the scaling of the turbulent diffusion coefficient with the fluctuation strength in the limit of slow fluctuation frequencies (large Kubo numbers). In this limit, the transport is found to exhibit pseudochaotic, rather than simply chaotic, properties associated with the vanishing Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy and anomalously slow mixing of phase-space trajectories.
