Frobenius W-algebras and traces of Frobenius Heisenberg categories

Michael Reeks, Alistair Savage

To each symmetric graded Frobenius superalgebra we associate a W-algebra. We then define a linear isomorphism between the trace of the Frobenius Heisenberg category and a central r…

Trace decategorification of tensor product algebras

Christopher Leonard, Michael Reeks

We show that in ADE type the trace of Webster's categorification of a tensor product of irreducibles for the quantum group is isomorphic to a tensor product of Weyl modules for the…

The center of the twisted Heisenberg category, factorial Schur -functions, and transition functions on the Schur graph

Henry Kvinge, Can Ozan Oğuz, Michael Reeks

We establish an isomorphism between the center of the twisted Heisenberg category and the subalgebra of the symmetric functions generated by odd power sums. We give a graphical…

Extended nilHecke algebra and symmetric functions in type B

Michael Reeks

We formulate a type B extended nilHecke algebra, following the type A construction of Naisse and Vaz. We describe an action of this algebra on extended polynomials and describe som…

Is the kinetic equation for turbulent gas-particle flows ill-posed?

M. W. Reeks, D. C. Swailes, A. D. Bragg

This paper is about well-posedness and realizability of the kinetic equation for gas-particle flows and its relationship to the Generalized Langevin Model (GLM) PDF equation. Previ…

Trace of the twisted Heisenberg Category

Can Ozan Oğuz, Michael Reeks

We show that the trace decategorification, or zeroth Hochschild homology, of the twisted Heisenberg category defined by Cautis and Sussan is isomorphic to a quotient of , a su…

An LES study of turbulent flow over in-line tube-banks and comparison with experimental measurements

C. Jin, I. Potts, D. C. Swailes +1

Turbulent flow across an in-line array of tube-banks with transverse and longitudinal pitch PT /D = 2.67, and PL /D = 2.31, has been simulated successfully by Large Eddy Simulation…

Cocenters of Hecke-Clifford and spin Hecke algebras

Michael Reeks

We determine a basis of the cocenter (i.e., the zeroth Hochschild homology) of the degenerate affine Hecke-Clifford and spin Hecke algebras in classical types.

Evaluation of the rate constant and deposition velocity for the escape of Brownian particles over potential barriers

Michael W. Reeks

We analyze the escape of Brownian particles over potential barriers using the Fokker-Planck equation in a similar way to that of Chandrasekhar (Rev. Modern Phys., 1943), deriving a…

The concept of particle pressure of a suspension of particles in a turbulent flow

Michael W. Reeks

The Clausius Virial theorem of Classical Kinetic Theory is used to evaluate the pressure of a suspension of small particles at equilibrium in an isotropic homogeneous and stationar…

Resuspension of Small Particles from Multilayer Deposits in Turbulent Boundary Layers

F. Zhang, M. Reeks, M. Kissane +1

We present a hybrid stochastic model for the resuspension of micron-size particles from multilayer deposits in a fully-developed turbulent boundary layer. The rate of removal of pa…

In search of random uncorrelated particle motion (RUM) in a simple random flow field

Michael W. Reeks, Luca Fabbro, Alfredo Soldati

DNS studies of dispersed particle motion in isotropic homogeneous turbulence [1] have revealed the existence of a component of random uncorrelated motion (RUM)dependent on the part…

Inertial-particle dynamics in turbulent flows: caustics, concentration fluctuations, and random uncorrelated motion

K. Gustavsson, E. Meneguz, M. Reeks +1

We discuss the relation between three recent approaches of describing the dynamics and the spatial distribution of particles suspended in turbulent flows: phase-space singularities…

Particle drift in turbulent flows: the influence of local structure and inhomogeneity

Michael W. Reeks

The way particles interact with turbulent structures, particularly in regions of high vorticity and strain rate, has been investigated in simulations of homogeneous turbulence and…

Particle Resuspension in Turbulent Boundary Layers and the Influence of Non-Gaussian Removal Forces

F. Zhang, M. Reeks, M. Kissane

The work described is concerned with the way micron-size particles attached to a surface are resuspended when exposed to a turbulent flow. An improved version of the Rock'n'Roll mo…

Brownian motion of finite-inertia particles in a simple shear flow

Yannis Drossinos, Michael W. Reeks

Simultaneous diffusive and inertial motion of Brownian particles in laminar Couette flow is investigated via Lagrangian and Eulerian descriptions to determine the effect of particl…
