Using Brownian dynamics computer simulations we show that a two-dimensional suspension of self-propelled ("active") colloidal particles crystallizes at sufficiently high densities. Compared to the equilibrium freezing of passive particles…
Consider a massive (inert) particle impinged from above by N Brownian particles that are instantaneously reflected upon collision with the inert particle. The velocity of the inert particle increases due to the influence of an external…
It is generally believed that collisions of particles reduce the self-diffusion coefficient. Here we show that in odd-diffusive systems, which are characterized by diffusion tensors with antisymmetric elements, collisions surprisingly can…
Brownian particles interacting via repulsive soft-core potentials can spontaneously aggregate, despite repelling each other, and form periodic crystals of particle clusters. We study this phenomenon in low-dimensional situations (one and…
Active Brownian motion is the complex motion of active Brownian particles. They are active in the sense that they can transform their internal energy into energy of motion and thus create complex motion patterns. Theories of active Brownian…
We study scattering of three equal mass particles in one dimension. Integrable interactions are synonymous with non-diffractive scattering, meaning that the set of incoming momenta for any scattering event coincides with the set of outgoing…
We consider Brownian particles immersed in the fluid which flow is turbulent. We study the limit where the particles' inertia is weak and their velocity relaxes fast to the velocity of the flow. The trajectories of the particles in this…
We study exclusion processes on the integer lattice in which particles change their velocities due to stickiness. Specifically, whenever two or more particles occupy adjacent sites, they stick together for an extended period of time, and…
The transport of active particles may occur in complex environments, in which it emerges from the interplay between the mobility of the active components and the quenched disorder of the environment. Here we explore structural and dynamical…
We consider a two-dimensional model system of Brownian particles in which slow particles are accelerated while fast particles are damped. The motion of the individual particles are described by a Langevin equation with Rayleigh-Helmholtz…
We solve the time-dependent Fokker-Planck equation for a two-dimensional active Brownian particle exploring a circular region with an absorbing boundary. Using the passive Brownian particle as basis states and dealing with the activity as a…
Deformable self-propelled particles provide us with one of the most important nonlinear dissipative systems, which are related, for example, to the motion of microorganisms. It is emphasized that this is a subject of localized objects in…
Active Brownian particles (ABPs) serve as a minimal model of active matter systems. When ABPs are sufficiently persistent, they undergo a liquid-gas phase separation and, in the presence of obstacles, accumulate around them, forming a…
We discuss inertial effects in systems outside equilibrium within the framework of non-equilibrium thermodynamics. By introducing a Gibbs equation in which the entropy depends on the probability density, we are able to describe a system of…
This work focuses on dynamics arising from reaction-diffusion equations , where the profile of propagation is no longer characterized by a single front, but by a layer of several fronts which we call a propagating terrace. This means,…
We study the stationary fluctuations of independent run-and-tumble particles. We prove that the joint densities of particles with given internal state converges to an infinite dimensional Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process. We also consider an…
The quantum theory can be formulated in the language of positive functionals on Weyl or Clifford algebra ($L$-functionals). It is shown that this language gives simple understanding of diagrams of Keldysh formalism (that coincide in our…
Fractional Brownian motion, a stochastic process with long-time correlations between its increments, is a prototypical model for anomalous diffusion. We analyze fractional Brownian motion in the presence of a reflecting wall by means of…
Starting from a careful analysis of the coupled Langevin equations for two interacting Brownian particles, we derive a method for extracting the binary friction tensor from the correlation function matrix of the instantaneous forces exerted…
We consider a class of interacting particle systems in continuous space of non-gradient type, which are reversible with respect to Poisson point processes with constant density. For these models, a rate of convergence was recently obtained…
