Recent pioneering experiments on non-Markovian dynamics done e.g. for active matter have demonstrated that our theoretical understanding of this challenging yet hot topic is rather incomplete and there is a wealth of phenomena still…
We experimentally study the motion of light-activated colloidal microswimmers in a viscoelastic fluid. We find that, in such a non-Newtonian environment, the active colloids undergo an unexpected transition from enhanced angular diffusion…
The effective dynamics of a colloidal particle immersed in a complex medium is often described in terms of an overdamped linear Langevin equation for its velocity with a memory kernel which determines the effective (time-dependent) friction…
A self-propelled artificial microswimmer is often modeled as a ballistic Brownian particle moving with constant speed aligned along one of its axis, but changing direction due to random collisions with the environment. Similarly to thermal…
We examine the behavior of a colloidal particle immersed in a viscoelastic bath undergoing stochastic resetting at a rate $r$. Microscopic probes suspended in viscoelastic environment do not follow the classical theory of Brownian motion.…
In a viscous fluid, the past motion of an accelerating particle is retained as an imprint on the vorticity field, which decays slowly as $t^{-3/2}$. At low Reynolds number, the Basset-Boussinesq-Oseen (BBO) equation correctly describes…

The connection between fundamental interactions acting in molecules in a fluid and macroscopically measured properties, such as the viscosity between colloidal particles coated with polymers, is studied here. The role that hydrodynamic and…
In this work we introduce and characterize a broad class of quantum operations with a unique fixed point, termed quantum ergodic channels. We derive Lindblad-type master equations for these channels in arbitrary finite dimensions and…
Non-Markovian dynamics is central to quantum information processing, as memory effects strongly influence coherence preservation, metrology, and communication. In this work, we investigate the role of stochastic system--bath couplings in…
We measure the energy exchanged between two hydrodynamically coupled micron-sized Brownian particles trapped in water by two optical tweezers. The system is driven out of equilibrium by random forcing the position of one of the two…
We study the dynamics of a quantum system whose interaction with an environment is described by a collision model, i.e. the open dynamics is modelled through sequences of unitary interactions between the system and the individual…
Using recently proposed measures for non-Markovianity [H. P. Breuer, E. M. Laine, and J. Piilo, Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 103}, 210401 (2009)], we study the dynamics of a qubit coupled to a spin environment via an energy-exchange mechanism. We…
Memoryless (Markovian) system-bath interactions are of fundamental interest in physics. While typically, the absence of memory originates from the characteristics of the bath, here we demonstrate that it can result from the system becoming…
We present a theory for the steady-state dynamics of a two-dimensional system of spherically symmetric active Brownian particles. The derivation of the theory consists of two steps. First, we integrate out the self-propulsions and obtain a…
Memory effects arise in many complex systems, from protein folding, to the spreading of epidemics and financial decisions. While so-called non-Markovian dynamics is common in larger systems with interacting components, observations in…
We analyze non-Markovian memory effects displayed by the quantum Brownian motion modelled as quantum harmonic oscillators coupled to a bath consisting of harmonic oscillators. We study the time evolution of fidelity, Petz-R\'enyi relative…
We use computer simulations to test a simple idea for mapping between long-time self diffusivities obtained from molecular and Brownian dynamics. The strategy we explore is motivated by the behavior of fluids comprising particles that…
