Lattice models allow for a computationally efficient investigation of motility-induced phase separation (MIPS) compared to off-lattice systems. Simulations are less demanding and thus bigger systems can be accessed with higher accuracy and…
Lifshitz points are multicritical points at which a disordered phase, a homogeneous ordered phase, and a modulated ordered phase meet. Their bulk universality classes are described by natural generalizations of the standard $\phi^4$ model.…
We perform large-scale computer simulations of an off-lattice two-dimensional model of active particles undergoing a motility-induced phase separation (MIPS) to investigate the systems critical behaviour close to the critical point of the…
The motility-induced phase separation (MIPS) is the spontaneous aggregation of active particles, while equilibrium phase separation (EPS) is thermodynamically driven by attractive interactions between passive particles. Despite such…
In this work, we study the critical behavior of second order points and specifically of the Lifshitz point (LP) of a three-dimensional Ising model with axial competing interactions (ANNNI model), using time-dependent Monte Carlo…
The critical behaviour of semi-infinite $d$-dimensional systems with short-range interactions and an O(n) invariant Hamiltonian is investigated at an $m$-axial Lifshitz point with an isotropic wave-vector instability in an $m$-dimensional…
In this work we investigate the critical behavior of physical systems with competing interactions that present points Lifshitz m-axial. For this study we used the techniques of Quantum Field Theory with Massive Scalar interactions of type…
Critical points of classical and quantum lattice models are often described by scale-invariant Lifshitz theories which are anisotropic in the continuum limit, as characterized by a dynamical critical exponent $z\neq1$. This type of critical…
We first survey some open questions concerning stochastic interacting particle systems with open boundaries. Then an asymmetric exclusion process with open boundaries that generalizes the lattice gas model of Katz, Lebowitz, and Spohn (KLS)…
We undertake a numerical study of the ordering kinetics in the two-dimensional ($2d$) active Ising model (AIM), a discrete flocking model with a conserved density field coupled to a non-conserved magnetization field. We find that for a…
The behavior of many magnetic and dielectric solids, and the more contemporary magnetic super-lattices, is governed by dipolar interactions. They are anisotropic and long-ranged, having varied consequences ranging from ground states with…
Quantum criticality has received extensive attention due to its ability to significantly enhance quantum sensing. But its realization and control in many-body quantum systems remain challenging. We present an effective scheme to simulate…
We introduce a minimal model for a collection of self-propelled apolar active particles, also called as `active nematic', on a two-dimensional substrate and study the order-disorder transition with the variation of density. The particles…
One of the most notable features in repulsive particle based active matter systems is motility-induced-phase separation (MIPS) where a dense, often crystalline phase coexists with a low density fluid. In most active matter studies, the…
The critical behavior of $d$-dimensional systems with $n$-component order parameter $\bm{\phi}$ is studied at an $m$-axial Lifshitz point where a wave-vector instability occurs in an $m$-dimensional subspace ${\mathbb R}^m$ ($m{>}1$). Field…
We propose a new overarching model for self-propelled particles that flexibly generates a full family of "descendants". The general dynamics introduced in this paper, which we denote as "parental" active model (PAM), unifies two special…
Many of the processes that underly neural computation are carried out by ion channels embedded in the plasma membrane, a two-dimensional liquid that surrounds all cells. Recent experiments have demonstrated that this membrane is poised…
The experimental use of micropatterned quasi-1D substrates has emerged as an useful experimental tool to study the nature of cell-cell interactions and gain insight on collective behaviour of cell colonies. Inspired by these experiments, we…
We study in detail the active Ising model, a stochastic lattice gas where collective motion emerges from the spontaneous breaking of a discrete symmetry. On a 2d lattice, active particles undergo a diffusion biased in one of two possible…
Semi-infinite $d$-dimensional systems with an $m$-axial bulk Lifshitz point are considered whose ($d-1$)-dimensional surface hyper-plane is oriented perpendicular to one of the $m$ modulation axes. An $n$-component $\phi^4$ field theory…
