We address the question whether one can identify instantons in direct numerical simulations of the stochastically driven Burgers equation. For this purpose, we first solve the instanton equations using the Chernykh-Stepanov method [Phys. Rev. E 64, 026306 (2001)]. These results are then compared to direct numerical simulations by introducing a filtering technique to extract prescribed rare events from massive data sets of realizations. Using this approach we can extract the entire time history of the instanton evolution which allows us to identify the different phases predicted by the direct method of Chernykh and Stepanov with remarkable agreement.

This work is devoted to the decay ofrandom solutions of the unforced Burgers equation in one dimension in the limit of vanishing viscosity. The initial velocity is homogeneous and Gaussian with a spectrum proportional to $k^n$ at small wavenumbers $k$ and falling off quickly at large wavenumbers. In physical space, at sufficiently large distances, there is an ``outer region, where the velocity correlation function preserves exactly its initial form (a power law) when $n$ is not an even integer. When $1<n<2$ the spectrum, at long times, has three scaling regions : first, a $|k|^n$ region at very small $k$ms1 with a time-independent constant, stemming from this outer region, in which the initial conditions are essentially frozen; second, a $k^2$ region at intermediate wavenumbers, related to a self-similarly evolving ``inner region in physical space and, finally, the usual $k^{-2}$ region, associated to the shocks. The switching from the $|k|^n$ to the $k^2$ region occurs around a wave number $k_s(t) propto t^{-1/[2(2-n)]}$, while the switching from $k^2$ to $k^{-2}$ occurs around $k_L(t)propto t^{-1/2}$ (ignoring logarithmic corrections in both instances). The key element in the derivation of the results is an extension of the Kida (1979) log-corrected $1/t$ law for the energy decay when $n=2$ to the case of arbitrary integer or non-integer $n>1$. A systematic derivation is given in which both the leading term and estimates of higher order corrections can be obtained. High-resolution numerical simulations are presented which support our findings.
A Freidlin-Wentzell type large deviation principle is established for stochastic partial differential equations with slow and fast time-scales, where the slow component is a one-dimensional stochastic Burgers equation with small noise and the fast component is a stochastic reaction-diffusion equation. Our approach is via the weak convergence criterion developed in [3].
In this review we discuss the weak KPZ universality conjecture for a class of 1-d systems whose dynamics conserves one or more quantities. As a prototype example for the former case, we will focus on weakly asymmetric simple exclusion processes, for which the density is preserved and the equilibrium fluctuations are shown to cross from the Edwards-Wilkinson universality class to the KPZ universality class. The crossover depends on the strength of the asymmetry. For the latter case, we will present an exclusion process with three species of particles, known as the ABC model, for which we aim to prove the convergence to a system of coupled stochastic Burgers equations, i.e. gradien
Since the famous work by Kolmogorov on incompressible turbulence, the structure-function theory has been a key foundation of modern turbulence study. Due to the simplicity of Burgers turbulence, structure functions are calculated to arbitrary orders, which provides numerous implications for other compressible turbulent systems. We present the derivation of exact forcing-scale resolving expressions for high-order structure functions of the burgers turbulence. Compared with the previous theories where the structure functions are calculated in the inertial range based on the statistics of shocks, our expressions link high-order structure functions in different orders without extra information on the flow structure and are valid beyond the inertial range, therefore they are easily checked by numerical simulations.
This study uses a simplified detonation model to investigate the behaviour of detonations with galloping-like pulsations. The reactive Burgers equation is used for the hydrodynamic equation, coupled to a pulsed source whereby all the shocked reactants are simultaneously consumed at fixed time intervals. The model mimics the short periodic amplifications of the shock front followed by relatively lengthy decays seen in galloping detonations. Numerical simulations reveal a saw tooth evolution of the front velocity with a period-averaged detonation speed equal to the Chapman-Jouguet velocity. The detonation velocity exhibits two distinct groups of decay time scales, punctuated by reaction pulses. At each pulse, a rarefaction wave is created at the reaction fronts last position. A characteristic investigation reveals that characteristics originating from the head of this rarefaction take 1.57 periods to reach and attenuate the detonation front, while characteristics at the tail take an additional period. The leading characteristics are amplified twice, by passing through the reaction fronts of subsequent pulses, before arriving at the shock front, whilst the trailing characteristics are amplified three times. This leads to the two distinct groups of time scales seen in the detonation front speed.
