Collective behavior occurs ubiquitously in nature and it plays a key role in bacterial colonies, mammalian cells or flocks of birds. Here, we examine the average density and velocity of self-propelled particles, which are described by a…
The Standard Vicsek Model (SVM) is a minimal nonequilibrium model of self-propelled particles that appears to capture the essential ingredients of critical flocking phenomena. In the SVM, particles tend to align with each other and form…
We consider a collective behavior model in which individuals try to imitate each others' velocity and have a preferred speed. We show that a phase change phenomenon takes place as diffusion decreases, bringing the system from a "disordered"…

We simulate the canonical Vicsek model and estimate the flow of information as a function of noise (the variability in the extent to which each animal aligns with its neighbours). We show that the global transfer entropy for finite flocks…
We study the orientational ordering in systems of self-propelled particles with selective interactions. To introduce the selectivity we augment the standard Vicsek model with a bounded-confidence collision rule: a given particle only aligns…
We study dynamic self-organisation and order-disorder transitions in a two-dimensional system of self-propelled particles. Our model is a variation of the Vicsek model, where particles align the motion to their neighbours but repel each…
We investigate the influence of obstacles on the collective motion of self propelled objects in the framework of the Vicsek model. The obstacles are arranged in a square lattice and have circular shape. We show that by increasing the radius…
Living many-body systems often exhibit scale-free collective behavior reminiscent of thermal critical phenomena. But their mutual interactions are inevitably retarded due to information processing and delayed actuation. We numerically…
We introduce a novel type of abnormal agents that proceed in the opposite direction of that defined for the normal agents. A new order parameter, $y$, is introduced to describe the characteristic of the system. Many interesting phenomenons…

In a system of noisy self-propelled particles with interactions that favor directional alignment, collective motion will appear if the density of particles increases beyond a certain threshold. In this paper, we argue that such a threshold…
