Our approach could be useful for flow control applications, as this minimal seed trajectory laminarizes naturally without actuation. This could lead to control schemes which exploit the state-space structure of a turbulent flow for improved efficiency. (3/3)

To answer this question, we develop an optimization-based approach for identifying a nearby point beyond the edge of chaos - the complex boundary separating turbulent and laminarizing flows. We call this point the minimal seed for relaminarization. (2/3)
