In the first part of the talk I shall present a linear model based
on the Schrodinger equation with constant coefficient and periodic
boundary conditions that explains the so-called Talbot effect in optics.
In the second part I will make a connection
of this Talbot effect with turbulence through the Schrodinger map which
is a geometric non-linear partial differential equation.
