Abstract
The anomalous scaling behavior of the nth order correlation functions of the Kraichnan model of turbulent passive scalar advection is believed to be dominated by the homogeneous solutions (zero modes) of the Kraichnan equation B-| =0. Previous analysis found zero modes in perturbation theory with respect to a small parameter. We present a computer-assisted analysis of the simplest nontrivial case of n=3: we demonstrate nonperturbatively the existence of anomalous scaling, and compare the results with the perturbative predictions.
