Abstract

The transpon of passive quantities by hydrodynamical flows is an important problem in theoretical as well as applied Science. In this paper, we will concentrate on the study of the evolution of a passive vector transported by a flowing liquid. An important application (among several others) is the development of magnetic fields in astrophysical situations [1 2 3 4 5 6].
