Free Turbulence on R^3 and T^3

The hydrodynamics of Newtonian fluids has been the subject of a tremendous amount of work over the past eighty years, both in physics and mathematics. Sadly, however, a mutual feeling of incomprehension has often hindered scientific contacts. This article provides a dictionary that allows mathematicians to define and study the spectral properties of Kolmogorov-Obukov turbulence in a simple deterministic manner. In other words, this approach fits turbulence into the mathematical framework of studying the qualitative properties of solutions of PDEs, independently from any a-priori model of the structure of the flow. To check that this new approach is correct, this article proves some of the classical statements that can be found in physics textbooks. This is followed by an investigation of the compatibility between turbulence and the smoothness of solutions of Navier-Stokes in 3D, which was the initial motivation of this study.Comment: 47 pages, 6 figure

JuliBootS: a hands-on guide to the conformal bootstrap

We introduce {\tt JuliBootS}, a package for numerical conformal bootstrap computations coded in {\tt Julia}. The centre-piece of {\tt JuliBootS} is an implementation of Dantzig's simplex method capable of handling arbitrary precision linear programming problems with continuous search spaces. Current supported features include conformal dimension bounds, OPE bounds, and bootstrap with or without global symmetries. The code is trivially parallelizable on one or multiple machines. We exemplify usage extensively with several real-world applications. In passing we give a pedagogical introduction to the numerical bootstrap methods.Comment: 29 page
