Abstract
This short course will be an introduction to some  mathematical results on turbulence. The emphasis will be on some `solvable' statistical theories (eg. Burgers, Onsager) that have surprisingly rich behavior.  Our aim is to disseminate some highlights of rigorous mathematical results on these problems without presupposing much background.
