Invariant Gibbs measures of the energy for shell models of turbulence; the inviscid and viscous cases

Abstract

Gaussian measures of Gibbsian type are associated with some shell models of 3D turbulence; they are constructed by means of the energy, a conserved quantity for the 3D inviscid and unforced shell model. We prove the existence of a unique global flow for a stochastic viscous shell model and a global flow for the deterministic inviscid shell model, with the property that these Gibbs measures are invariant for these flows.
