Abstract
By using the field theoretic renormalization group technique together with the operator product expansion, simultaneous influence of the spatial parity violation and finite-time correlations of an electrically conductive turbulent environment on the inertial-range scaling behavior of correlation functions of a passively advected weak magnetic field is investigated within the corresponding generalized Kazantsev-Kraichnan model in the second order of the perturbation theory (in the two-loop approximation). The explicit dependence of the anomalous dimensions of the leading composite operators on the fixed point value of the parameter that controls the presence of finite-time correlations of the turbulent field as well as on the parameter that drives the amount of the spatial parity violation (helicity) in the system is found even in the case with the presence of the large-scale anisotropy. In accordance with the Kolmogorov's local isotropy restoration hypothesis, it is shown that, regardless of the amount of the spatial parity violation, the scaling properties of the model are always driven by the anomalous dimensions of the composite operators near the isotropic shell. The asymptotic (inertial-range) scaling form of all single-time two-point correlation functions of arbitrary order of the passively advected magnetic field is found. The explicit dependence of the corresponding scaling exponents on the helicity parameter as well as on the parameter that controls the finite-time velocity correlations is determined. It is shown that, regardless of the amount of the finite-time correlations of the given Gaussian turbulent environment, the presence of the spatial parity violation always leads to more negative values of the scaling exponents, i.e., to the more pronounced anomalous scaling of the magnetic correlation functions. At the same time, it is shown that the stronger the violation of spatial parity, the larger the anomalous behavior of magnetic correlations.

Abstract
Using the field theoretic formulation of the kinematic magnetohydrodynamic turbulence, the explicit expressions for the anomalous dimensions of leading composite operators, which govern the inertial-range scaling properties of correlation functions of the weak magnetic field passively advected by the electrically conductive turbulent environment driven by the Navier-Stokes velocity field, are derived and analyzed in the second order of the corresponding perturbation expansion (in the two-loop approximation). Their properties are compared to the properties of the same anomalous dimensions obtained in the framework of the Kazantsev-Kraichnan model of the kinematic magnetohydrodynamics with the Gaussian statistics of the turbulent velocity field as well as to the analogous anomalous dimensions of the leading composite operators in the problem of the passive scalar advection by the Gaussian (the Kraichnan model) and non-Gaussian (driven by the Navier-Stokes equation) turbulent velocity field. It is shown that, regardless of the Gaussian or non-Gaussian statistics of the turbulent velocity field, the two-loop corrections to the leading anomalous dimensions are much more important in the case of the problem of the passive advection of the vector (magnetic) field than in the case of the problem of the passive advection of scalar fields. At the same time, it is also shown that, in phenomenologically the most interesting case with three spatial dimensions, higher velocity correlations of the turbulent environment given by the Navier-Stokes velocity field play a rather limited role in the anomalous scaling of passive scalar as well as passive vector quantities, i.e., that the two-loop corrections to the corresponding leading anomalous dimensions are rather close to those obtained in the framework of the Gaussian models, especially as for the problem of scalar field advection. On the other hand, the role of the non-Gaussian statistics of the turbulent velocity field becomes dominant for higher spatial dimensions in the case of the kinematic magnetohydrodynamic turbulence but remains negligible in the problem of the passive scalar advection.

Abstract
Using the field-theoretic renormalization group approach and the operator product expansion technique in the second order of the corresponding perturbative expansion, the influence of finite-time correlations of the turbulent velocity field on the scaling properties of the magnetic field correlation functions as well as on the anisotropy persistence deep inside the inertial range are investigated in the framework of the generalized Kazantsev-Kraichnan model of kinematic magnetohydrodynamic turbulence. Explicit two-loop expressions for the scaling exponents of the single-time two-point correlation functions of the magnetic field are derived and it is shown that the presence of the finite-time velocity correlations has a nontrivial impact on their inertial-range behavior and can lead, in general, to significantly more pronounced anomalous scaling of the magnetic field correlation functions in comparison to the rapid-change limit of the model, especially for the most interesting three-dimensional case. Moreover, by analyzing the asymptotic behavior of appropriate dimensionless ratios of the magnetic field correlation functions, it is also shown that the presence of finite-time correlations of the turbulent velocity field has a strong impact on the large-scale anisotropy persistence deep inside the inertial interval. Namely, it leads to a significant enhancement of the anisotropy persistence, again, especially in three spatial dimensions.

Abstract
The problem of the anomalous scaling in the kinematic magnetohydrodynamic turbulence is investigated using the field theoretic renormalization group method and the operator product expansion technique. The anomalous dimensions of all leading composite operators, which drive the anomalous scaling of the correlation functions of a weak passive magnetic field, are determined up to the second order of the perturbation theory (i.e., in the two-loop approximation in the field theoretic terminology) in the presence of a large scale anisotropy for physically the most interesting three-dimensional case. It is shown that the leading role in the anomalous scaling properties of the model is played by the anomalous dimensions of the composite operators near the isotropic shell, in accordance with the Kolmogorov’s local isotropy restoration hypothesis. The importance of the two-loop corrections to the anomalous dimensions of the leading composite operators is demonstrated.

Abstract
Incompressible magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence under influences of the Hall and the gyro-viscous terms was studied by means of direct numerical simulations of freely decaying, homogeneous and approximately isotropic turbulence. Numerical results were compared among MHD, Hall MHD, and extended MHD models focusing on differences of Hall and extended MHD turbulence from MHD turbulence at a fully relaxed state. Magnetic and kinetic energies, energy spectra, energy transfer, vorticity and current structures were studied. The Hall and gyro-viscous terms change the energy transfer in the equations of motions to be forward-transfer-dominant while the magnetic energy transfer remains backward-transfer-dominant. The gyro-viscosity works as a kind of hyper-diffusivity, attenuating the kinetic energy spectrum sharply at a high wave-number region. However, this term also induces high-vorticity events more frequently than MHD turbulence, making the turbulent field more intermittent. Vortices and currents were found to be transformed from sheet to tubular structures under the influences of the Hall and/or the gyro-viscous terms. These observations highlight features of fluid-dynamic aspect of turbulence in sub-ion-scales where turbulence is governed by the ion skin depth and ion Larmor radius.

Abstract
The renormalization group approach and the operator product expansion technique are applied to the model of a passively advected vector field by a turbulent velocity field. The latter is governed by the stochastic Navier-Stokes equation for a compressible fluid. The model is considered in the vicinity of space dimension d = 4 and the perturbation theory is constructed within a double expansion scheme in y and ε = 4 − d , where y describes scaling behaviour of the random force that enters the Navier-Stokes equation. The properties of the correlation functions are investigated, and anomalous scaling and multifractal behaviour are established. All calculations are performed in the leading order of y, ε expansion (one-loop approximation).

Abstract
In this paper we consider the model of incompressible fluid described by the stochastic Navier-Stokes equation with finite correlation time of a random force. Inertial-range asymptotic behavior of fully developed turbulence is studied by means of the field theoretic renormalization group within the one-loop approximation. It is corroborated that regardless of the values of model parameters and initial data the inertial-range behavior of the model is described by the limiting case of vanishing correlation time. This indicates that the Galilean symmetry of the model violated by the "colored" random force is restored in the inertial range. This regime corresponds to the only nontrivial fixed point of the renormalization group equation. The stability of this point depends on the relation between the exponents in the energy spectrum E∝k^{1-y} and the dispersion law ω∝k^{2-η}. The second analyzed problem is the passive advection of a scalar field by this velocity ensemble. Correlation functions of the scalar field exhibit anomalous scaling behavior in the inertial-convective range. We demonstrate that in accordance with Kolmogorov's hypothesis of the local symmetry restoration the main contribution to the operator product expansion is given by the isotropic operator, while anisotropic terms should be considered only as corrections.

Abstract
Using the field theoretic renormalization group technique and the operator product expansion, the systematic investigation of the influence of the spatial parity violation on the anomalous scaling behavior of correlation functions of the weak passive magnetic field in the framework of the compressible Kazantsev-Kraichnan model with the presence of a large-scale anisotropy is performed up to the second order of the perturbation theory (two-loop approximation). The renormalization group analysis of the model is done and the two-loop explicit expressions for the anomalous and critical dimensions of the leading composite operators are found as functions of the helicity and compressibility parameters and their anisotropic hierarchies are discussed. It is shown that for arbitrary values of the helicity parameter and for physically acceptable (small enough) values of the compressibility parameter, the main role is played by the composite operators near the isotropic shell in accordance with the Kolmogorov's local isotropy restoration hypothesis. The anomalous dimensions of the relevant composite operators are then compared with the anomalous dimensions of the corresponding leading composite operators in the Kraichnan model of passively advected scalar field. The significant difference between these two sets of anomalous dimensions is discussed. The two-loop inertial-range scaling exponents of the single-time two-point correlation functions of the magnetic field are found and their dependence on the helicity and compressibility parameters is studied in detail. It is shown that while the presence of the helicity leads to more pronounced anomalous scaling for correlation functions of arbitrary order, the compressibility, in general, makes the anomalous scaling more pronounced in comparison to the incompressible case only for low-order correlation functions. The persistence of the anisotropy deep inside the inertial interval is investigated using the appropriate odd ratios of the correlation functions. It is shown that, in general, the persistence of the anisotropy is much more pronounced in the helical systems, while in the compressible turbulent environments this is true only for low-order odd ratios of the correlation functions.

Abstract
We study a model of fully developed turbulence of a compressible fluid, based on the stochastic Navier-Stokes equation, by means of the field-theoretic renormalization group. In this approach, scaling properties are related to the fixed points of the renormalization group equations. Previous analysis of this model near the real-world space dimension 3 identified a scaling regime [N. V. Antonov et al., Theor. Math. Phys. 110, 305 (1997)TMPHAH0040-577910.1007/BF02630456]. The aim of the present paper is to explore the existence of additional regimes, which could not be found using the direct perturbative approach of the previous work, and to analyze the crossover between different regimes. It seems possible to determine them near the special value of space dimension 4 in the framework of double y and ɛ expansion, where y is the exponent associated with the random force and ɛ=4-d is the deviation from the space dimension 4. Our calculations show that there exists an additional fixed point that governs scaling behavior. Turbulent advection of a passive scalar (density) field by this velocity ensemble is considered as well. We demonstrate that various correlation functions of the scalar field exhibit anomalous scaling behavior in the inertial-convective range. The corresponding anomalous exponents, identified as scaling dimensions of certain composite fields, can be systematically calculated as a series in y and ɛ. All calculations are performed in the leading one-loop approximation.

Abstract
The field-theoretic renormalization group and the operator product expansion are applied to the model of passive vector (magnetic) field advected by a random turbulent velocity field. The latter is governed by the Navier-Stokes equation for compressible fluid, subject to external random force with the covariance ∝ δ(t-t')k(4-d-y), where d is the dimension of space and y is an arbitrary exponent. From physics viewpoints, the model describes magnetohydrodynamic turbulence in the so-called kinematic approximation, where the effects of the magnetic field on the dynamics of the fluid are neglected. The original stochastic problem is reformulated as a multiplicatively renormalizable field-theoretic model; the corresponding renormalization group equations possess an infrared attractive fixed point. It is shown that various correlation functions of the magnetic field and its powers demonstrate anomalous scaling behavior in the inertial-convective range already for small values of y. The corresponding anomalous exponents, identified with scaling (critical) dimensions of certain composite fields ("operators" in the quantum-field terminology), can be systematically calculated as series in y. The practical calculation is performed in the leading one-loop approximation, including exponents in anisotropic contributions. It should be emphasized that, in contrast to Gaussian ensembles with finite correlation time, the model and the perturbation theory presented here are manifestly Galilean covariant.

Abstract
In this work we study the generalization of the problem considered in [Phys. Rev. E 91, 013002 (2015)] to the case of finite correlation time of the environment (velocity) field. The model describes a vector (e.g., magnetic) field, passively advected by a strongly anisotropic turbulent flow. Inertial-range asymptotic behavior is studied by means of the field theoretic renormalization group and the operator product expansion. The advecting velocity field is Gaussian, with finite correlation time and preassigned pair correlation function. Due to the presence of distinguished direction n, all the multiloop diagrams in this model vanish, so that the results obtained are exact. The inertial-range behavior of the model is described by two regimes (the limits of vanishing or infinite correlation time) that correspond to the two nontrivial fixed points of the RG equations. Their stability depends on the relation between the exponents in the energy spectrum E∝k(⊥)(1-ξ) and the dispersion law ω∝k(⊥)(2-η). In contrast to the well-known isotropic Kraichnan's model, where various correlation functions exhibit anomalous scaling behavior with infinite sets of anomalous exponents, here the corrections to ordinary scaling are polynomials of logarithms of the integral turbulence scale L.

Abstract
The field-theoretic renormalization group and the operator product expansion are used to investigate the influence of spatial parity violation of the conductive turbulent environment on the anomalous scaling behavior of correlation functions of a weak magnetic field in the framework of the Kazantsev-Kraichnan rapid change model. Two-loop expressions for the critical dimensions of the leading composite operators, which drive the anomalous scaling of the two-point single-time correlation functions of the magnetic field in the presence of large-scale anisotropy, are found to be functions of the helicity parameter. It is shown that the presence of helicity in the system leads to a significantly stronger manifestation of anomalous scaling than in the nonhelical case. At the same time, it is also shown that helicity does not destroy the standard hierarchy of the anisotropic anomalous exponents in the framework of which the leading contribution to anomalous scaling is given by the isotropic shell.

Abstract
Inertial-range asymptotic behavior of a vector (e.g., magnetic) field, passively advected by a strongly anisotropic turbulent flow, is studied by means of the field-theoretic renormalization group and the operator product expansion. The advecting velocity field is Gaussian, not correlated in time, with the pair correlation function of the form ∝δ(t-t')/k(⊥)(d-1+ξ), where k(⊥)=|k(⊥)| and k(⊥) is the component of the wave vector, perpendicular to the distinguished direction ("direction of the flow")--the d-dimensional generalization of the ensemble introduced by Avellaneda and Majda [Commun. Math. Phys. 131, 381 (1990)]. The stochastic advection-diffusion equation for the transverse (divergence-free) vector field includes, as special cases, the kinematic dynamo model for magnetohydrodynamic turbulence and the linearized Navier-Stokes equation. In contrast to the well-known isotropic Kraichnan's model, where various correlation functions exhibit anomalous scaling behavior with infinite sets of anomalous exponents, here the dependence on the integral turbulence scale L has a logarithmic behavior: Instead of powerlike corrections to ordinary scaling, determined by naive (canonical) dimensions, the anomalies manifest themselves as polynomials of logarithms of L. The key point is that the matrices of scaling dimensions of the relevant families of composite operators appear nilpotent and cannot be diagonalized. The detailed proof of this fact is given for the correlation functions of arbitrary order.

Abstract
The field theoretic renormalization group and the operator product expansion are applied to two models of passive scalar quantities (the density and the tracer fields) advected by a random turbulent velocity field. The latter is governed by the Navier-Stokes equation for compressible fluid, subject to external random force with the covariance ∝δ(t-t')k(4-d-y), where d is the dimension of space and y is an arbitrary exponent. The original stochastic problems are reformulated as multiplicatively renormalizable field theoretic models; the corresponding renormalization group equations possess infrared attractive fixed points. It is shown that various correlation functions of the scalar field, its powers and gradients, demonstrate anomalous scaling behavior in the inertial-convective range already for small values of y. The corresponding anomalous exponents, identified with scaling (critical) dimensions of certain composite fields ("operators" in the quantum-field terminology), can be systematically calculated as series in y. The practical calculation is performed in the leading one-loop approximation, including exponents in anisotropic contributions. It should be emphasized that, in contrast to Gaussian ensembles with finite correlation time, the model and the perturbation theory presented here are manifestly Galilean covariant. The validity of the one-loop approximation and comparison with Gaussian models are briefly discussed.

Abstract
The field theoretic renormalization group and operator product expansion are used for an investigation of the anomalous scaling behavior of correlation functions of the weak magnetic field in the framework of the compressible Kazantsev-Kraichnan model. Two-loop expressions for the anomalous exponents of the correlation functions of arbitrary order in the presence of large-scale anisotropy are found as functions of compressibility. The influence of compressibility on the hierarchy of the anisotropic contributions is discussed, and it is shown that already relatively small compressibility can destroy the standard hierarchy of anisotropic anomalous exponents in the framework of which the leading contribution to the anomalous scaling is given by the isotropic shell.
