Instances of negative mobility, where a system responds to a perturbation in a way opposite to naive expectation, have been studied theoretically and experimentally in numerous nonequilibrium systems. In this work we show that Absolute…
Absolute negative mobility (ANM) is one of the most paradoxical transport phenomena in which a setup moves on average in a direction opposite to the applied force. According to the state of the art a minimal system exhibiting this effect in…
We propose a simple classical concept of nanodevices working in an absolute negative mobility (ANM) regime: The minimal spatial asymmetry required for ANM to occur is embedded in the geometry of the transported particle, rather than in the…
A novel transport phenomenon is identified that is induced by inertial Brownian particles which move in simple one-dimensional, symmetric periodic potentials under the influence of both a time periodic and a constant, biasing driving force.…

Driven particles in presence of crowded environment, obstacles or kinetic constraints often exhibit negative differential mobility (NDM) due to their decreased dynamical activity. We propose a new mechanism for complex many-particle systems…
Recently Ru-Yin Chen et al. (Phys. Lett. A 379 (2015) 2169-2173) presented results on the absolute negative mobility (ANM) in a one-dimensional overdamped system and claimed that a new minimal model of ANM was proposed. We suggest that the…
We study, via extensive numerical simulations, the force-velocity curve of an active particle advected by a steady laminar flow, in the nonlinear response regime. Our model for an active particle relies on a colored noise term that mimics…
Using simulations, we examine the average velocity as a function of applied drift force for active matter particles moving through a random obstacle array. We find that for low drift force, there is an initial flow regime where the mobility…
We study the mobility and the diffusion coefficient of an inertial tracer advected by a two-dimensional incompressible laminar flow, in the presence of thermal noise and under the action of an external force. We show, with extensive…
Absolute negative mobility is one of the most paradoxical forms of anomalous transport behaviour. At the first glance it contradicts the superposition principle and the second law of thermodynamics, however, its fascinating nature bridges…
For systems out of equilibrium and subjected to a static bias force it can often be expected that particle transport will usually follow the direction of this bias. However, counter-examples exist where particles exhibit uphill motion…
Anomalous transport of non-Markovian, thermal Brownian particle dynamics in spatially-periodic symmetric systems that is driven by time-periodic symmetric driving and constant bias is investigated numerically. The Brownian dynamics is…
Depending on how the dynamical activity of a particle in a random environment is influenced by an external field $E$, its differential mobility at intermediate $E$ can turn negative. We discuss the case where for slowly changing random…
We study impact of inertia on directed transport of a Brownian particle under non-equilibrium conditions: the particle moves in a one-dimensional periodic and symmetric potential, is driven by both an unbiased time-periodic force and a…
Using extensive numerical studies we demonstrate that absolute negative mobility of a Brownian particle (i.e. the net motion into the direction opposite to a constant biasing force acting around zero bias) does coexist with anomalous…
Chiral fluids, for which the mobility tensor has antisymmetric, off-diagonal components, exhibit transport phenomena absent in conventional systems, including interaction-enhanced diffusion and negative mobility. While these effects have…

We consider a single Brownian particle in a spatially symmetric, periodic system far from thermal equilibrium. This setup can be readily realized experimentally. Upon application of an external static force F, the average particle velocity…
