It has been demonstrated recently that supercooled liquids sharing simple structural features (e.g. pair distribution functions) may exhibit strikingly distinct dynamical behavior. Here we show that a more subtle structural feature…
A colloidal particle immersed in a bath of bacteria is a typical example of a passive particle in an active bath. To model this, we take an overdamped harmonically trapped particle subjected to a thermal and a non-equilibrium noise arising…
The interaction of bodies in a fluid, mediated by hydrodynamic fluctuations and proposed by Dzyaloshinskii, Lifshitz, and Pitaevskii, is calculated exactly for parallel infinite planes and is shown to be attractive. The second mechanism of…

Resistive switching is one of the foremost candidates for building novel types of non-volatile random access memories. Any practical implementation of such a memory cell calls for a strong miniaturization, at which point fluctuations start…

A simple model accounting for the ejection of heavy particles from the vortical structures of a turbulent flow is introduced. This model involves a space and time discretization of the dynamics and depends on only two parameters: the…

We numerically obtain the first quantitative demonstration that development of spatial correlations of mobility as temperature is lowered is responsible for the ``decoupling'' of transport properties of supercooled liquids. This result…
The time which a diffusing particle spends in a certain region of space is known as the occupation time, or the residence time. Recently the joint occupation time statistics of an ensemble of non-interacting particles was addressed using…
We study the relation between the partition function of a non--relativistic particle, in one spatial dimension, that describes the equilibrium fluctuations implicitly, and the partition function of the same system, deduced from the Langevin…
