Turbulence of capillary waves revisited

Kinetic regime of capillary wave turbulence is classically regarded in terms of three-wave interactions with the exponent of power energy spectrum being $ν=-7/4$ (two-dimensional case). We show that a number of assumptions necessary for this regime to occur can not be fulfilled. Four-wave interactions of capillary waves should be taken into account instead, which leads to exponents $ν=-13/6$ and $ν=-3/2$ for one- and two-dimensional wavevectors correspondingly. It follows that for general dispersion functions of decay type, three-wave kinetic regime need not prevail and higher order resonances may play a major role. Accepted for publication.

Laminated Wave Turbulence: Generic Algorithms III

Model of laminated wave turbulence allows to study statistical and discrete layers of turbulence in the frame of the same model. Statistical layer is described by Zakharov-Kolmogorov energy spectra in the case of irrational enough dispersion function. Discrete layer is covered by some system(s) of Diophantine equations while their form is determined by wave dispersion function. This presents a very special computational challenge - to solve Diophantine equations in many variables, usually 6 to 8, in high degrees, say 16, in integers of order $10^{16}$ and more. Generic algorithms for solving this problem in the case of {\it irrational} dispersion function have been presented in our previous papers. In this paper we present a new generic algorithm for the case of {\it rational} dispersion functions. Special importance of this case is due to the fact that in wave systems with rational dispersion the statistical layer does not exist and the general energy transport is governed by the discrete layer alone.

Laminated Wave Turbulence: Generic Algorithms I

The model of laminated wave turbulence presented recently unites both types of turbulent wave systems - statistical wave turbulence (introduced by Kolmogorov and brought to the present form by numerous works of Zakharov and his scientific school since nineteen sixties) and discrete wave turbulence (developed in the works of Kartashova in nineteen nineties). The main new feature described by this model is the following: discrete effects do appear not only in the long-wave part of the spectral domain (corresponding to small wave numbers) but all through the spectra thus putting forth a novel problem - construction of fast algorithms for computations in integers of order $10^{12}$ and more. In this paper we present a generic algorithm for polynomial dispersion functions and illustrate it by application to gravity and planetary waves.
