Description:
Title: Some Recent Results On Wave Turbulence Theory
Abstract: Wave turbulence describes the dynamics of both classical and non-classical nonlinear waves out of thermal equilibrium. In this talk, I will present some of our recent results on wave turbulence theory. In the first part of the talk, I will discuss our rigorous derivation of wave turbulence equations. The second part of the talk is devoted to the analysis of wave turbulence equations as well as some numerical illustrations. The last part concerns some physical applications of wave turbulence theory. The talk is based on my joint work with Gigliola Staffilani (MIT), Avy Soffer (Rutgers), Yves Pomeau (ENS Paris), and Steven Walton (PhD student at SMU).
