abstract

We study wave turbulence in systems with two special properties: a large number of fields (large $N$) and a nonlinear interaction that is strongly local in momentum space. The first property allows us to find the kinetic equation at all interaction strengths -- both weak and strong, at leading order in $1/N$. The second allows us to turn the kinetic equation -- an integral equation -- into a differential equation. We find stationary solutions for the occupation number as a function of wave number, valid at all scales. As expected, on the weak coupling end the solutions asymptote to Kolmogorov-Zakharov scaling. On the strong coupling end, they asymptote to either the widely conjectured generalized Phillips spectrum (also known as critical balance), or a Kolmogorov-like scaling exponent.

  1. Weak and strong turbulence in self-focusing and defocusing media

    physics.flu-dyn 2025-01 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    One-loop wave interactions steepen the spectrum in defocusing media and flatten it in focusing media, and large-N analysis yields new strong-turbulence spectra.

  2. Effects of strong turbulence for water waves

    physics.flu-dyn 2025-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Direct simulation of plane-symmetric deep-water gravity waves shows a strongly nonlinear regime with omega^-4 and k^-4 spectra, shock fronts, and -7/2 steepness tails, with no weak-turbulence spectrum detected.
