Motivated by experimental observations of patterning at the leading edge of motile eukaryotic cells, we introduce a general model for the dynamics of nearly-flat fluid membranes driven from within by an ensemble of activators. We include,…
We study the one-dimensional active Ising model in which aligning particles undergo diffusion biased by the signs of their spins. The phase diagram obtained varying the density of particles, their hopping rate and the temperature…
Family-Vicsek (FV) scaling provides an understanding for the growth and finite-size saturation of fluctuations in classical systems. Here, we extend the FV roughness to transferred segment magnetization after quantum quenches in a…
With Monte Carlo methods, we investigate the universality class of the depinning transition in the two-dimensional Ising model with quenched random fields. Based on the short-time dynamic approach, we accurately determine the depinning…
We formulate a new (1+1)D step model of potentially unstable vicinal growth that we call "C+ - C-" model and study the step bunching process in it. The basic assumption is that the equilibrium adatom concentrations on both sides of the step…
We modify the standard Vicsek model to clearly distinguish between intrinsic noise due to imperfect alignment between organisms, and extrinsic noise due to fluid motion. We then consider the effect of a steady vortical flow, the Taylor…
Localization is one of the most fundamental interference phenomena caused by randomness, and its universal aspects have been extensively explored from the perspective of one-parameter scaling mainly for static properties. We numerically…
We study a two-dimensional crystal composed of active units governed by self-alignment. This mechanism induces a torque that aligns a particle's orientation with its velocity and leads to a phase transition from a disordered to a flocking…
We study the properties of the Malthusian Toner-Tu theory in its near ordering phase. Because of the birth/death process, characteristic of this Malthusian model, density fluctuations are partially suppressed. We study this model using the…
Collective behaviour in biological systems pitches us against theoretical challenges way beyond the borders of ordinary statistical physics. The lack of concepts like scaling and renormalization is particularly grievous, as it forces us to…
We present the relativistic analogue of the Cucker-Smale model with a bonding force on Riemannian manifold, and study its emergent dynamics. The Cucker-Smale model serves a prototype example of mechanical flocking models, and it has been…
Renormalization-group theory stands, since over 40 years, as one of the pillars of modern physics. As such, there should be no remaining doubt regarding its validity. However, finite-size scaling, which derives from it, has long been poorly…
We study further the recently introduced [Ranguelov et al., Comptes Rendus de l'Acad. Bulg. des Sci. 60, 4 (2007) 389] "C+-C-" model of step flow crystal growth over wide range of model parameters. The basic assumption of the model is that…
The theoretical understanding of pattern formation in active systems remains a central problem of interest. Heterogeneous flocks made up of multiple species can exhibit a remarkable diversity of collective states that cannot be obtained…
This work explores the influence of viscous fluids on cosmological dynamics within the framework of General Relativity. We introduce a novel time-dependent parametrization for the bulk viscosity coefficient, given by \(\zeta = \zeta_0 (t -…
We show that "Malthusian flocks" -- i.e., coherently moving collections of self-propelled entities (such as living creatures) which are being "born" and "dying" during their motion -- belong to a new universality class in spatial dimensions…
In this paper we introduce and discuss numerical schemes for the approximation of kinetic equations for flocking behavior with phase transitions that incorporate uncertain quantities. This class of schemes here considered make use of a…
We study the single-file dynamics of three classes of active particles: run-and-tumble particles, active Brownian particles and active Ornstein-Uhlenbeck particles. At high activity values, the particles, interacting via purely repulsive…
In this paper we prove global existence of weak solutions, their regularization, and relaxation for large data for a broad class of Fokker-Planck-Alignment models which appear in collective dynamics. The main feature of these results, as…
We study purification dynamics in monitored quantum processes governed by ensembles of quantum circuits in different random-matrix symmetry classes. We analyze the universal aspects that emerge away from the measurement induced phase…
