We introduce a family of lattice-gas models of flocking, whose thermodynamically consistent dynamics admits a proper equilibrium limit at vanishing self-propulsion. These models are amenable to an exact coarse-graining which allows us to…
Several systems display an equilibrium condensation transition, where a finite fraction of a conserved quantity is spatially localized. The presence of two conservation laws may induce the emergence of such transition in an…
We consider stochastic lattice gases with stationary product weights and a polynomial perturbation vanishing with the system size that leads to condensation. If the density of particles exceeds a critical value the system phase separates…
We analyse collective motion that occurs during rare (large deviation) events in systems of active particles, both numerically and analytically. We discuss the associated dynamical phase transition to collective motion, which occurs when…
We examine the effect of spatial bias on a nonequilibrium system in which masses on a lattice evolve through the elementary moves of diffusion, coagulation and fragmentation. When there is no preferred directionality in the motion of the…
We present the hydrodynamic theory of coherent collective motion ("flocking") at a solid-liquid interface, and many of its predictions for experiment. We find that such systems are stable, and have long-range orientational order, over a…
A general system of particles (of one or several species) on a one dimensional lattice with boundaries is considered. Two general behaviors of such systems are investigated. The stationary behavior of the system, and the dominant way of the…
We consider the collective behaviour of active particles that locally align with their neighbours. Agent-based simulation models have previously shown that in one dimension, these particles can form into a flock that maintains its stability…
Many biological processes are supported by special molecules, called motor proteins or molecular motors, that transport cellular cargoes along linear protein filaments and can reversibly associate to their tracks. Stimulated by these…
We study a particle system with hopping (random walk) dynamics on the integer lattice $\mathbb Z^d$. The particles can exist in two states, active or inactive (sleeping); only the former can hop. The dynamics conserves the number of…
In this work we propose a two-dimensional extension of a previously defined one-dimensional version of a model of counterflowing particles, which considers an adapted Fermi-Dirac distribution to describe the transition probabilities. In…
Flocking and vortical are two typical motion modes in active matter. Although it is known that the two modes can spontaneously switch between each other in a finite-size system, the switching dynamics remain elusive. In this work, by…
We study a two-lane driven lattice gas model with oppositely directed particles moving on two periodic lanes with correlated lane switching processes, so that particles can switch lanes with finite probability only when oppositely directed…
We study the dynamics of condensation of the inclusion process on a one-dimensional periodic lattice in the thermodynamic limit, generalising recent results on finite lattices for symmetric dynamics. Our main focus is on totally asymmetric…
Several theoretical models based on totally asymmetric simple exclusion process (TASEP) have been extensively utilized to study various non-equilibrium transport phenomena. Inspired by the the role of microtubule-transported vesicles in…
We introduce a new model of aggregation of particles where in addition to diffusion and aggregation upon contact, a single unit of mass can dissociate from a conglomerate. This dissociation move conserves the total mass and leads to a…
We present Monte Carlo simulations of a three-state lattice gas, half-filled with two types of particles which attract one another, irrespective of their identities. A bias drives the two particle species in opposite directions,…
In this paper, we proposed a stochastic model which describes two species of particles moving in counterflow. The model generalizes the theoretical framework describing the transport in random systems since particles can work as mobile…
We study a stochastic lattice gas of particles undergoing asymmetric diffusion in two dimensions. Transitions between a low-density uniform phase and high-density non-uniform phases characterized by localized or extended structure are…
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…
