Symmetries of Turbulence
Abstract:
I will briefly review what is known about broken and emerging statistical symmetries of the turbulence state. I will particularly discuss unexpected recent findings on conformal invariance in turbulence and the relation between isolines in 2d turbulent flows and the Schramm-Loewner evolution.

Coffee will be served at 12:00 before the lecture
