Material surfaces in stochastic flows: integrals of motion and intermittency

Abstract

We consider the line, surface and volume elements of fluid in stationary isotropic incompressible stochastic flow in $d$-dimensional space and investigate the long-time evolution of their statistic properties. We report the discovery of a family of $d!-1$ stochastical integrals of motion that are universal in the sense their explicit form does not depend on the statistics of velocity. Only one of them has been discussed previously.
