This study explores the effect of quenched disorder on the characteristic of self-propelled particles in one-dimension. Here,particles interact with disorder which serve as directional cues. The study investigates how the density of the…
Sudden and abrupt changes can occur in a nonlinear system within many fields of science when such a system crosses a tipping point and rapid changes of the system occur in response to slow changes in an external forcing. These can occur…
The formation of regular precipitate stripes in the wake of moving chemical reaction-diffusion fronts is investigated. Experiments on the $NaOH+CuCl_2$ reaction in PVA hydrogel yield stripes parallel or slightly oblique to the front that…
We perform a sudden quench on the Haldane model with long range interactions, more specifically generalising to the next to next nearest neighbour hopping, referred to as the $N3$ model in our work. Such a model possesses both isotropic and…
The effect of quenched disorder in the one-dimensional asymmetric exclusion process is reviewed. Both particlewise and sitewise disorder generically induces phase separation in a range of densities. In the particlewise case the existence of…
An interphase boundary may be immobilized due to nonlinear diffractional interactions in a feedback optical device. This effect reminds of the Turing mechanism, with the optical field playing the role of a diffusive inhibitor. Two examples…
We examine the dynamics and stripe formation in a system with competing short and long range interactions in the presence of both an applied dc drive and quenched disorder. Without disorder, the system forms stripes organized in a labyrinth…
We demonstrate that semiclassical fluctuations, their relaxation, and the chiral phase transition are automatically incorporated in the numerical simulations of the classical equations of motion in the linear $\sigma$-model when…
We investigate the pattern dynamics of the one-dimensional nonreciprocal Swift-Hohenberg model. Characteristic spatiotemporal patterns such as disordered, aligned, swap, chiral-swap, and chiral phases emerge depending on the parameters. We…
Many systems exhibit a phase where the order parameter is spatially modulated. These patterns can be the result of a frustration caused by the competition between interaction forces with opposite effects. In all models with local…
The functionalized Cahn-Hilliard (FCH) equation supports planar and circular bilayer interfaces as equilibria which may lose their stability through the pearling bifurcation: a periodic, high-frequency, in-plane modulation of the bilayer…
We show that the rate of separation of two phases of different densities (e.g. gas and solid) can be radically altered by the presence of a metastable intermediate phase (e.g. liquid). Within a Cahn-Hilliard theory we study the growth in…
We investigate the effects of quenched disorder on the universal properties of a randomly driven Ising lattice gas. The Hamiltonian fixed point of the pure system becomes unstable in the presence of a quenched local bias, giving rise to a…
We show that driven dislocation assemblies exhibit a set of dynamical phases remarkably similar to those of driven systems with quenched disorder such as vortices in superconductors, magnetic domain walls, and charge density wave materials.…
We discuss the transition paths in a coupled bistable system consisting of interacting multiple identical bistable motifs. We propose a simple model of coupled bistable gene circuits as an example, and show that its transition paths are…
We numerically investigate the phase separation dynamics of the non-reciprocal Allen-Cahn model in which two non-conserved order parameters are coupled. The system exhibits several dynamical patterns such as the randomly oscillating phase…

We study a system of non-identical bistable particles that is driven by a dynamical constraint and coupled through a non-local mean-field. Assuming piecewise affine constitutive laws we prove the existence of traveling wave solutions and…
Using numerical simulations, we examine a simple model of two or more coupled one-dimensional channels of driven particles with repulsive interactions in the presence of quenched disorder. We find that this model exhibits a remarkably rich…
