Turbulence as Gibbs Statistics of Vortex Sheets - Alexander Migdal

Explore the complex world of turbulence through a comprehensive lecture that delves into the Gibbs statistics of vortex sheets. Gain insights from Alexander Migdal of New York University as he unravels the enigma of turbulence, covering topics such as the theory of vortex sheets, anomalous Euler dynamics, scaling laws, and spontaneous turbulence. Discover the connections between Gibbs statistics, ground state, soft modes, and the KLS domain wall. Examine the master equation and its implications for understanding turbulent flows. Enhance your knowledge of fluid dynamics and statistical mechanics in this hour-long presentation from the Workshop on Turbulence at the Institute for Advanced Study.
