DESCRIPTION:Understanding the mixing of fluids of different properties is 
 a fundamentally important challenge with applications from the making of t
 he perfect cocktail to describing the transport of heat and pollutants in 
 the atmosphere and oceans. The underlying mathematics has a beauty all its
  own\, due not least to a subtle and non-intuitive interplay between a wid
 e range of physical processes and the inherently nonlinear dynamics of flu
 id motion. In the talk\, I both review some of the key successes in the ma
 thematical description of mixing\, and also introduce some fascinating ope
 n questions.
