Oscillatory instability and fluid patterns in low-Prandtl-number Rayleigh-B\'{e}nard convection with uniform rotation
We present the results of direct numerical simulations of flow patterns in a
low-Prandtl-number () fluid above the onset of oscillatory convection
in a Rayleigh-B\'{e}nard system rotating uniformly about a vertical axis.
Simulations were carried out in a periodic box with thermally conducting and
stress-free top and bottom surfaces. We considered a rectangular box () and a wide range of Taylor numbers () for the purpose. The horizontal aspect ratio of the box
was varied from to . The primary instability appeared in the form of
two-dimensional standing waves for shorter boxes ( and ). The flow patterns observed in boxes with and
were different from those with and . We observed a
competition between two sets of mutually perpendicular rolls at the primary
instability in a square cell () for , but observed a set
of parallel rolls in the form of standing waves for . The
three-dimensional convection was quasiperiodic or chaotic for , and then bifurcated into a two-dimensional periodic flow for . The convective structures consisted of the appearance and disappearance
of straight rolls, rhombic patterns, and wavy rolls inclined at an angle with the straight rolls.Comment: 32 pages, 14 figures, 1 tabl
Dynamics of market states and risk assessment
Based on previous developments of the concept of market states using
correlation matrices, in the present paper we address the dynamical evolution
of correlation matrices in time. This will imply minor modifications to the
market states themselves, due to increased attention to the transition matrix
between the states. We will introduce trajectories of the correlation matrices
by considering one day shifts for the epoch used to calculate the correlation
matrices and will visualize both the states and the trajectories after
dimensional scaling. This approach using dynamics improves the options of risk
assessment and opens the door to dynamical treatments of markets and shows
noise suppression in a new light.Comment: 22 pages and 27 figures. arXiv admin note: text overlap with
