A Model of Two Dimensional Turbulence Using Random Matrix Theory
  We derive a formula for the entropy of two dimensional incompressible inviscid flow, by determining the volume of the space of vorticity distributions with fixed values for the moments Q_k= \int_w(x)^k d^2 x. This space is approximated by a sequence of spaces of finite volume, by using a regularization of the system that is geometrically natural and connected with the theory of random matrices. In taking the limit we get a simple formula for the entropy of a vortex field. We predict vorticity distributions of maximum entropy with given mean vorticity and enstrophy; also we predict the cylindrically symmetric vortex field with maximum entropy. This could be an approximate description of a hurricane.
