Rate coefficients can fluctuate in statically and dynamically disordered kinetics. Here we relate the rate coefficient for an irreversibly decaying population to the Fisher information. From this relationship we define kinetic versions of…
We study the effect of quenched disorder on nonequilibrium systems of interacting particles, specifically, driven diffusive lattice gases with spatially disordered jump rates. The exact steady-state measure is found for a class of models…
We consider stochastic dynamical systems defined by differential equations with a uniform random time delay. The latter equations are shown to be equivalent to deterministic higher-order differential equations: for an $n$-th order equation…
Heterogeneity in biological molecules, resulting in molecule-to-molecule variations in their dynamics and function, is an emerging theme. To elucidate the consequences of heterogeneous behavior at the single molecule level, we propose an…
This paper studies how complicated and irregular behavior, known as chaos, can arise in a simple mathematical model that includes time delays. The model is a delay differential equation in which the present rate of change depends not only…
The shear flow of two dimensional foams is probed as a function of shear rate and disorder. Disordered foams exhibit strongly rate dependent velocity profiles, whereas ordered foams show rate independence. Both behaviors are captured…

We derive the long-time behavior of the ${A} + {B} \to \emptyset$ reaction in two dimensions, finding a universal exponent and prefactor in the absence of disorder. Sufficiently singular disorder leads to a (sub)diffusion-limited reaction…
The dynamics of an order parameter's amplitude and phase determines the collective behaviour of novel states emerged in complex materials. Time- and momentum-resolved pump-probe spectroscopy, by virtue of its ability to measure material…
A consistent perturbation theory expansion is presented for phase-ordering kinetics in the case of a nonconserved scalar order parameter. At zeroth order in this expansion one obtains the theory due to Ohta, Jasnow and Kawasaki (OJK). At…
Linear Response theory aims to predict how added forcing alters the statistical properties of an unforced system. These kinds of questions have been studied predominantly for autonomous dynamical systems, yet many systems in the physical,…
We investigate time-dependent stochastic disorder in the one-dimensional Jaynes-Cummings-Hubbard model and show that it gives rise to diffusive behaviour. We find that disorder correlation frequency is effective in controlling the level of…
This paper considers the problem of controlling a piecewise continuously differentiable system subject to time-varying uncertainties. The uncertainties are decomposed into a time-invariant, linearly-parameterized portion and a time-varying…
We study spatiotemporal chaos in two-dimensional dense active suspensions using a generalized hydrodynamic model. Increasing activity induces a structural transition marked by the formation of intense vortices and giant number fluctuations…
The statistical properties of species undergoing chemical reactions in a turbulent environment are studied. We focus on the case of reversible multi-component reactions of second and higher orders, in a condition close to chemical…
The deposition dynamics of particles (or the growth of a rigid crystal) on a disordered substrate at a finite deposition rate is explored. We begin with an equation of motion which includes, in addition to the disorder, the periodic…
In this paper we consider the rate of convergence of solutions of a scalar ordinary differential equation which is a perturbed version of an autonomous equation with a globally stable equilibrium. Under weak assumptions on the nonlinear…
Fluctuations of observables as functions of time, or "fluctuation patterns", are studied in a chaotic microscopically reversible system that has irreversibly reached a nonequilibrium stationary state. Supposing that during a certain, long…
We derive an inequality relating the finite-frequency linear response and fluctuations of an observable in a physical system. The relation holds for arbitrary observables and perturbations in general Markovian dynamics, including over- and…
A stochastic process, when subject to resetting to its initial condition at a constant rate, generically reaches a non-equilibrium steady state. We study analytically how the steady state is approached in time and find an unusual relaxation…
