Lecture notes from the Les Houches summer school on Active Matter and Non-Equilibrium Statistical Physics 2018. The notes contain a pedagogical introduction to the statistics of forces in dry active matter. In particular, the physics behind…
These notes are an account of a series of lectures given at the Les Houches Summer School "Active Matter and Non-equilibrium Statistical Physics" during August and September 2018. The lectures can be viewed online at…
In this review we summarize theoretical progress in the field of active matter, placing it in the context of recent experiments. Our approach offers a unified framework for the mechanical and statistical properties of living matter:…
The study of systems with sustained energy uptake and dissipation at the scale of the constituent particles is an area of central interest in nonequilibrium statistical physics. Identifying such systems as a distinct category -- Active…
These lecture notes are designed to provide a brief introduction into the phenomenology of active matter and to present some of the analytical tools used to rationalize the emergent behavior of active systems. Such systems are made of…
These notes are based on lectures given during the Summer School `Active matter and non-equilibrium statistical physics', held in Les Houches in September 2018. In these notes, we have merged our lectures into a single chapter broadly…
Active learning seeks to achieve strong performance with fewer training samples. It does this by iteratively asking an oracle to label new selected samples in a human-in-the-loop manner. This technique has gained increasing popularity due…
Active particles contain internal degrees of freedom with the ability to take in and dissipate energy and, in the process, execute systematic movement. Examples include all living organisms and their motile constituents such as molecular…
Active matter has been widely studied in recent years because of its rich phenomenology, whose mathematical understanding is still partial. We present some results, based on [8, 17] linking microscopic lattice gases to their macroscopic…
This article aims to introduce the broad field of soft active matter physics and its relevance to the life sciences in simple, accessible language. Although this area of research is relatively new, it has already demonstrated significant…
These lecture notes were prepared for the 2018 Summer School on `Active Matter and Non-equilibrium Statistical Physics' at l'\'{E}cole de Physique des Houches. They survey metabolic activity across a wide range of living organisms, and…
These notes focus on the description of the phases of matter in two dimensions. Firstly, we present a brief discussion of the phase diagrams of bidimensional interacting passive systems, and their numerical and experimental measurements.…
In equilibrium, the collective behaviour of particles interacting via steep, short-ranged potentials is well captured by the virial expansion of the free energy at low density. Here, we extend this approach beyond equilibrium to the case of…
In these Lecture Notes we aim at clarifying how soft matter physics, and herein notably statistical mechanics and fluid mechanics, can be engaged to understand and manipulate non-equilibrium systems consisting of numerous (microscopic)…
The aim of these lectures, given at the Les Houches Summer School of Physics "Strongly Interacting Quantum Systems Out of Equilibrium", is providing an introduction to several important and interesting facets of out of equilibrium dynamics.…

Active matter is a term encompassing particle-based assemblies with some form of self-propulsion, including certain biological systems as well as synthetic systems such as artificial colloidal swimmers, all of which can exhibit a remarkable…
Active matter consumes energy from the environment and transforms it into mechanical work. Notable examples from biology include cell division, bacterial swarms, and muscle contraction. In this work, we investigate the nature of active…
The accumulation of self-propelled particles on repulsive barriers is a widely observed feature in active matter. Despite being implicated in a broad range of biological processes, from biofilm formation to cytoskeletal movement, wetting of…
We review the state of the art of active fluids with particular attention to hydrodynamic continuous models and to the use of Lattice Boltzmann Methods (LBM) in this field. We present the thermodynamics of active fluids, in terms of liquid…
