Passive tracer in a flow corresponding to a two dimensional stochastic Navier Stokes equations
In this paper we prove the law of large numbers and central limit theorem for
trajectories of a particle carried by a two dimensional Eulerian velocity
field. The field is given by a solution of a stochastic Navier--Stokes system
with a non-degenerate noise. The spectral gap property, with respect to
Wasserstein metric, for such a system has been shown in [9]. In the present
paper we show that a similar property holds for the environment process
corresponding to the Lagrangian observations of the velocity. In consequence we
conclude the law of large numbers and the central limit theorem for the tracer.
The proof of the central limit theorem relies on the martingale approximation
of the trajectory process
