We derive the asymptotic winding law of a Brownian particle in the plane subjected to a tangential drift due to a point vortex. For winding around a point, the normalized winding angle converges to an inverse Gamma distribution. For winding around a disk, the angle converges to a distribution given by an elliptic theta function. For winding in an annulus, the winding angle is asymptotically Gaussian with a linear drift term. We validate our results with numerical simulations.

The distribution engendered by successive splitting of one point vortex are considered. The process of splitting a vortex in three using a reverse three-point vortex collapse course is analysed in great details and shown to be dissipative. A simple p rocess of successive splitting is then defined and the resulting vorticity distribution and vortex populations are analysed.
Experimentalists use particles as tracers in liquid helium. The intrusive effects of particles on the dynamics of vortices remain poorly understood. We implement a study of how basic well understood vortex states, such as a propagating pair of opposi tely signed vortices, change in the presence of particles by using a simple model based on the Magnus force. We focus on the 2D case, and compare the analytic and semi-analytic model with simulations of the Gross-Pitaevskii (GP) equation with particles modelled by dynamic external potentials. The results confirm that the Magnus force model is an effective way to approximate vortex-particle motion either with closed-form simplified solutions or with a more accurate numerically solvable ordinary differential equations (ODEs). Furthermore, we increase the complexity of the vortex states and show that the suggested semi-analytical model remains robust in capturing the dynamics observed in the GP simulations.
The paper identifies families of quasi-stationary initial conditions for infinite Brownian particle systems within a large class and provides a construction of the particle systems themselves started from such initial conditions. Examples of particle systems falling into our framework include Browni
We consider the active Brownian particle (ABP) model for a two-dimensional microswimmer with fixed speed, whose direction of swimming changes according to a Brownian process. The probability density for the swimmer evolves according to a Fokker-Planc k equation defined on the configuration space, whose structure depends on the swimmers shape, center of rotation and domain of swimming. We enforce zero probability flux at the boundaries of configuration space. We derive a reduced equation for a swimmer in an infinite channel, in the limit of small rotational diffusivity, and find that the invariant density depends strongly on the swimmers precise shape and center of rotation. We also give a formula for the mean reversal time: the expected time taken for a swimmer to completely reverse direction in the channel. Using homogenization theory, we find an expression for the effective longitudinal diffusivity of a swimmer in the channel, and show that it is bounded by the mean reversal time.
We derive a governing equation for a Kelvin wave supported on a vortex line in a Bose-Einstein condensate, in a rotating cylindrically symmetric parabolic trap. From this solution the Kelvin wave dispersion relation is determined. In the limit of an oblate trap and in the absence of longitudinal trapping our results are consistent with previous work. We show that the derived Kelvin wave dispersion in the general case is in quantitative agreement with numerical calculations of the Bogoliubov spectrum and offer a significant improvement upon previous analytical work.
