The Ecole Normale
Supérieure de Lyon is one of the most
prestigious institutions for research and teaching in France. It hosts
many excellent laboratories in mathematics, physics, complex systems,
geophysics and biology, among them the Laboratoire de Physique.
The Laboratoire de Physique is currently one of the most active laboratories in France and all over the world, in turbulence and nonlinear dynamics on one hand, and in statistical physics on the other hand.
Within the Laboratoire de Physique, a group around F. Bouchet will deal with theoretical problems in nonlinear dynamics and statistical physics and with applications to geophysical flows.

F. Bouchet is an expert in
statistical
physics of systems with long
range interactions, statistical
physics applied to two-dimensional turbulence and geophysical flows. As a matter of fact, the last two papers by F. Bouchet published in J. Stat. Phys., have been presented as the two most cited ones in J. Stat. Phys. over the last two years. One of these works is a contribution to large deviation theory, which is the core of one of the main parts of the research project. Freddy Bouchet's current works deal, on one hand with the out of equilibrium statistical mechanics for two-dimensionnal turbulence (two PRL papers accepted in January 2009), and on the other hand with application of statistical mechanics ideas to simple GFD and ocean models (two preprints and lectures notes in preparation).
