Collective motion is ubiquitous in active systems at all length and time scales. The mechanisms behind such collective motion usually are alignment interactions between active particles, effective alignment after collisions between agents…

In special relativity, trajectories of particles, whether massive or massless, in 4D, can be displayed in the 3+1 Minkowski space-time manifold. On the other hand, in quantum mechanics, trajectories in phase space are not strictly defined…
