Abstract
En 中文
We study a passive scalar equation on the two-dimensional torus, where the advecting velocity field is given by a cellular flow with a randomly moving centre. We prove that the passive scalar undergoes mixing at a deterministic exponential rate, independent of any underlying diffusivity. Furthermore, we show that the velocity field enhances dissipation and we establish sharp decay rates that, for large times, are deterministic and remain uniform in the diffusivity constant. Our approach is purely Eulerian and relies on a suitable modification of Villani's hypocoercivity method, which incorporates a larger set of H & ouml;rmander commutators than Villani's original method.
