Many biological systems form colonies at high density. Passive granular systems will be jammed at such densities, yet for the survival of biological systems it is crucial that they are dynamic. We construct a phase diagram for a system of…
Self-organization is an ubiquitous phenomenon in nature which can be observed in a variety of different contexts and scales, with examples ranging from fish schools, swarms of birds or locusts, to flocks of bacteria. The observation of such…
In Part I of this two-part series, the reverse perturbation method for shearing simple liquids [Phys. Rev. E 59, 4894 (1999)] was extended to systems of interacting particles with time-discrete stochastic dynamics. For verification, in this…
The hydrodynamic conservation equations and constitutive relations for a binary granular mixture composed of smooth, nearly elastic, hard spheres with non-equipartition energies and different mean velocities are derived. This research is…
We consider systems of agents interacting through topological interactions. These have been shown to play an important part in animal andhuman behavior. Precisely, the system consists of a finite number of particles characterized by their…
Spatially-distributed, nonequilibrium chemical systems described by a Markov chain model are considered. The evolution of such systems arises from a combination of local birth-death reactive events and random walks executed by the particles…
The Relativistic Mean Field (RMF) approach describing the motion of independent particles in effective meson fields is extended by a microscopic theory of particle vibrational coupling. It leads to an energy dependence of the relativistic…
Non-aligning self-propelled particles with purely repulsive excluded volume interactions undergo athermal motility-induced phase separation into a dilute gas and a dense cluster phase. Here, we use enhanced sampling computational methods…
The flocking of self-propelled particles in heterogeneous environments is relevant to both natural and artificial systems. The Vicsek model is a canonical choice to investigate such systems due to the minimal number of parameters required…
We study the structure and phase behavior of a binary mixture where one of the components is self-propelling in nature. The inter-particle interactions in the system were taken from the Asakura-Oosawa model, for colloid-polymer mixtures,…
Kinetic theories constitute one of the most promising tools to decipher the characteristic spatio-temporal dynamics in systems of actively propelled particles. In this context, the Boltzmann equation plays a pivotal role, since it provides…
Using the standard Vicsek model, I show how the macroscopic transport equations can be systematically derived from microscopic collision rules. The approach starts with the exact evolution equation for the N-particle probability…
We discuss the multispecies time-dependent restricted-active-space self-consistent-field theory, an \textit{ab initio} wavefunction-based theory for mixtures of ultracold atomic and molecular gases. We present the general theory, based on…
I review the quantum theory of the electron moving in a random environment. First, the quantum mechanics of individual particles scattered on a random potential is discussed. The quantum-mechanical description is extended to many-body…
We investigate chimera synchronization of internal oscillator states in a ring of interacting particles, using the damped dc-driven Frenkel--Kontorova chain model as an example. In a system with a spatially periodic potential, a dc external…
We present a generalized quasi-particle theory for bosonic lattice systems, which naturally contains all relevant collective modes, including the Higgs amplitude in the strongly correlated superfluid. In contrast to Bogoliubov theory, this…
The cohesive collective motion (flocking, swarming) of autonomous agents is ubiquitously observed and exploited in both natural and man-made settings, thus, minimal models for its description are essential. In a model with continuous space…
We complete the kinetic theory of inhomogeneous systems with long-range interactions initiated in previous works. We use a simpler and more physical formalism. We consider a system of particles submitted to a small external stochastic…
The hypothesis of ``molecular chaos'' is shown to fail when applied to spatially inhomogeneous evolution of a low-density gas, because this hypothesis is incompatible with reduction of interactions of gas particles to ``collisions''. The…
We develop the kinetic theory of Hamiltonian systems with weak long-range interactions. Starting from the Klimontovich equation and using a quasilinear theory, we obtain a general kinetic equation that can be applied to spatially…
