In quenched disordered systems, the existence of ordering is generally believed to be only possible in the weak disorder regime (disregarding models of spin-glass type). In particular, sufficiently large random field is expected to prohibit…
The effect of quenched disorder on the underdamped motion of a periodically driven particle on a ratchet potential is studied. As a consequence of disorder, current reversal and chaotic diffusion may take place on regular trajectories. On…
We use particle dynamics simulations to probe the correlations between noise and dynamics in a variety of disordered systems, including superconducting vortices, 2D electron liquid crystals, colloids, domain walls, and granular media. The…
The Kuramoto model has been introduced to describe synchronization phenomena observed in groups of cells, individuals, circuits, etc. The model consists of $N$ interacting oscillators on the one dimensional sphere $\mathbf{S}^{1}$, driven…
The classic Hegselmann-Krause (HK) model for opinion dynam- ics consists of a set of agents on the real line, each one instructed to move, at every time step, to the mass center of all the agents within a fixed distance R. In this work, we…
Non-equilibrium systems are known to exhibit long-ranged correlations due to conservation of quantities like density or momentum. This, in turn, leads to long-ranged fluctuation-induced (Casimir) forces, predicted to arise in a variety of…
We study noise-averaged observables for a system of exchange-coupled quantum spins (qubits), each subject to a stochastic drive, by establishing mappings onto stochastic models in the strong-noise limit. Averaging over noise yields…
We study the disorder-to-order transition in a collection of polar self-propelled particles interacting through a distance dependent alignment interaction. Strength of the interaction, $a^{d}$ ($0<a<1$) decays with metric distance $d$…
We present a numerical study of the phase behavior of repulsively interacting active polar particles that align their active velocities nematically. The amplitude of the active velocity, and the noise in its orientational alignment control…
We investigate a model where strong noise in a sub-population creates a metastable state in an otherwise unstable two-population system. The induced metastable state is vortex-like, and its persistence time grows exponentially with the…
We study dynamic self-organisation and order-disorder transitions in a two-dimensional system of self-propelled particles. Our model is a variation of the Vicsek model, where particles align the motion to their neighbours but repel each…
We present a field theoretic renormalization group study for the critical behaviour of a uniformly driven diffusive system with quenched disorder, which is modelled by different kinds of potential barriers between sites. Due to their…
A solvable model of noise effects on globally coupled limit cycle oscillators is proposed. The oscillators are under the influence of independent and additive white Gaussian noise. The averaged motion equation of the system with infinitely…
In this paper, we consider the Cucker-Smale flocking particles which are subject to the same velocity-dependent noise, which exhibits a phase change phenomenon occurs bringing the system from a "non flocking" to a "flocking" state as the…
We investigate the low temperature behavior of a system in a spontaneously broken symmetry phase described by an Euclidean quantum $\lambda\varphi^{4}_{d+1}$ model with quenched disorder. Using a series representation for the averaged…
We show that low density homogeneous phases of self propelled hard disks exhibit a transition from isotropic to polar collective motion, albeit of a qualitatively distinct class from the Vicsek one. In the absence of noise, an abrupt…
We present a theory for describing the evolution of a galaxy caused by stochastic events such as weak mergers, transient spiral structure, orbiting blobs, etc. This noise excites large-scale patterns that drives the evolution of the…
The nature of the transition to collective motion in assemblies of aligning self-propelled particles remains a long-standing matter of debate. In this article, we focus on dry active matter and show that weak fluctuations suffice to…
Collective actuation describes the spontaneous synchronized oscillations taking place in active solids, when the elasto-active feedback, that generically couples the reorientation of the active forces and the elastic stress, is large…
Meso-scale turbulence was originally observed experimentally in various suspensions of swimming bacteria, as well as in the collective motion of active colloids. The corresponding large-scale dynamical patterns were reproduced in a simple…
