We study the diffusivity of a tagged particle in a binary mixture of Brownian particles with non-reciprocal interactions. Numerical simulations reveal that, for a broad class of interaction potentials, non-reciprocity can significantly…

Careful analysis of parametrized variational principles in mechanics and field theory leads to a generalization of Einstein theory that includes a cosmological stress tensor. This generalization also follows by restricting variations of the…

Despite the fact that the theory of mixtures has been part of non-equilibrium thermodynamics and engineering for a long time, it is far from complete. While it is well formulated and tested in the case of mechanical equilibrium (where only…

An active bath, made of self-propelling units, is a nonequilibrium medium in which the Einstein relation $D=\mu k_B T$ between the mobility $\mu$ and the diffusivity $D$ of a tracer particle cannot be expected to hold a priori. We consider…
