A systematic route to subcritical dynamo branches

Paul M. Mannix, Yannick Ponty, Florence Marcotte

We demonstrate that the nonlinear optimisation of a finite-amplitude disturbance over a freely evolving and possibly even turbulent flow, can successfully identify subcritical dyna…

Transition from large-scale to small-scale dynamo

Yannick Ponty, Franck Plunian

The dynamo equations are solved numerically with a helical forcing corresponding to the Roberts flow. In the fully turbulent regime the flow behaves as a Roberts flow on long time…

Counting and sampling gene family evolutionary histories in the duplication-loss and duplication-loss-transfer models

Cedric Chauve, Yann Ponty, Michael Wallner

Given a set of species whose evolution is represented by a species tree, a gene family is a group of genes having evolved from a single ancestral gene. A gene family evolves along…

Small-world networks and RNA secondary structures

Defne Surujon, Yann Ponty, Peter Clote

Let Sn denote the network of all RNA secondary structures of length n, in which undirected edges exist between structures s, t such that t is obtained from s by the addition, remov…

Dynamo enhancement and mode selection triggered by high magnetic permeability

Sophia Kreuzahler, Yannick Ponty, Nicolas Plihon +2

We present results from consistent dynamo simulations, where the electrically conducting and incompressible flow inside a cylinder vessel is forced by moving impellers numerically…

Dissipative structures in a nonlinear dynamo

Andrew D. Gilbert, Yannick Ponty, Vladislav Zheligovsky

This paper considers magnetic field generation by a fluid flow in a system referred to as the Archontis dynamo: a steady nonlinear magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) state is driven by a pr…
