Abstract
We observe that high-stretch tails of finite-time Lyapunov exponent distributions associated with interfaces evolving under a class of nonturbulent chaotic flows can range from essentially Gaussian tails to nearly exponential tails, and show that the non-Gaussian deviations can have a significant effect on interfacial evolution. This observation motivates new insight into stretch processes under chaotic flows.
