On the Hamiltonian and geometric structure of Langmuir circulation
The Craik-Leibovich equation (CL) serves as the theoretical model for Langmuir circulation. We show that the CL equation can be reduced to the dual space of a certain Lie algebra central extension. On this space, the CL equation can be rewritten as a Hamiltonian equation corresponding to the kinetic...
