Abstract A spatially two-dimensional sixth order PDE describing the evolution of a growing crystalline surface h(x, y, t) that undergoes faceting is considered with periodic boundary conditions, as well as its reduced one-dimensional version. These equations are expressed in terms of the slopes $$u_1=h_{x}$$ u 1 = h x and $$u_2=h_y$$ u 2 = h y to establish the existence of global, connected attractors for both equations. Since unique solutions are guaranteed for initial conditions in $$\dot{H}^2_{per}$$ H ˙ p e r 2 , we consider the solution operator $$S(t): \dot{H}^2_{per} \rightarrow \dot{H}^2_{per}$$ S ( t ) : H ˙ p e r 2 → H ˙ p e r 2 , to gain our results. We prove the necessary continuity, dissipation and compactness properties.

Two Dimensional System

We present a set of expressions for evaluating energies and forces between particles interacting logarithmically in a finite two-dimensional system with periodic boundary conditions. The formalism can be used for fast and accurate, dynamical or Monte Carlo, simulations of interacting line charges or interactions between point and line charges. The expressions are shown to converge to usual computer accuracy (~10–16) by adding only few terms in a single sum of standard trigonometric functions.

Ising Systems

We show that for two-dimensional square Ising systems unphysical frozen states are obtained by just changing the instant of application of periodic boundary conditions during Monte Carlo simulations. The strange behavior is observed up to sample sizes currently used in literature. The anomalous results appear to be associated to the simultaneous use of type writer updating algorithms; they disappear when random access routines are implemented.

Decaying Turbulence

Most theoretical and computational studies of turbulence in Navier—Stokes fluids and/or guiding-centre plasmas have been carried out in the presence of spatially periodic boundary conditions. In view of the frequently reproduced result that two-dimensional and/or MHD decaying turbulence leads to structures comparable in length scale to a box dimension, it is natural to ask if periodic boundary conditions are an adequate representation of any physical situation. Here, we study, computationally, the decay of two-dimensional turbulence in a Navier—Stokes fluid or guiding-centre plasma in the presence of circular no-slip rigid walls. The method is wholly spectral, and relies on a Galerkin approximation by a set of functions that obey two boundary conditions at the wall radius (analogues of the Chandrasekhar— Reid functions). It is possible to explore Reynolds numbers up to the order of 1250, based on an RMS velocity and a box radius. It is found that decaying turbulence is altered significantly by the no-slip boundaries. First, strong boundary layers serve as sources of vorticity and enstrophy and enhance the early-time energy decay rate, for a given Reynolds number, well above the periodic boundary condition values. More importantly, angular momentum turns out to be an even more slowly decaying ideal invariant than energy, and to a considerable extent governs the dynamics of the decay. Angular momentum must be taken into account, for example, in order to achieve quantitative agreeement with the predicition of maximum entropy, or ‘most probable’, states. These are predicitions of conditions that are established after several eddy turnover times but before the energy has decayed away. Angular momentum will cascade to lower azimuthal mode numbers, even if absent there initially, and the angular momentum modal spectrum is eventually dominated by the lowest mode available. When no initial angular momentum is present, no behaviour that suggests the likelihood of inverse cascades is observed.
