The orientational dynamics of weakly inertial axisymmetric particles in a steady flow is investigated. We derive an asymptotic equation of motion for the unit axial vector along the particle symmetry axis, valid for small Stokes number St,…
This paper addresses the existence and spectral stability of traveling fronts for nonlinear hyperbolic equations with a positive "damping" term and a reaction function of bistable type. Particular cases of the former include the relaxed…
A self-propelled particle in a two-dimensional axisymmetric system, such as a particle in a central force field or confined in a circular region, may show rotational or oscillatory motion. These motions do not require asymmetry of the…
The possible paralelism existing between phase transitions and fracture in disordered materials, is discussed using the well-known Fiber Bundle Models and a probabilistic approach suited to smooth fluctuations near the critical point. Two…
We consider a propagation of exotermic transition front in a discrete conservative oscillatory chain. Adequate description of such fronts is a key point in prediction of important transient phenomena, including phase transitions and…
Traveling wavetrains in generalized two-species predator-prey models and two-component reaction-diffusion equations are considered. The stability of the fixed points of the traveling wave ODEs (in the usual "spatial" variable) is…
In this work, the orientation adapter, a species of active particles that adapt their direction of motion from the other active particles, is introduced. The orientation adapters exist besides the usual Vicsek-like particles; both are…
A beam of rotating dipolar particles (molecules or clusters) will broaden when passed through an electric or magnetic field gradient region. This broadening, which is a common experimental observable, can be expressed in terms of the…
We establish the existence of a stable foliation in the vicinity of a traveling front solution for systems of reaction diffusion equations in one space dimension that arise in the study of chemical reactions models and solid fuel…
We analyze ``pulled'' or ``linearly marginally stable'' fronts propagating into unstable states. While ``pushed'' fronts into meta- and unstable states relax exponentially, pulled fronts relax algebraically, and simultaneously the standard…
We study the primordial bispectrum of curvature perturbation in the uniform- density slicing generated by the interaction between the inflaton and isotropic background gauge fields. We derive the action up to cubic order in perturbation and…
The equations of motion for spinning compact binaries on eccentric orbits are treated perturbatively in powers of a fractional mass-difference ordering parameter. The solution is valid through first order in the mass-difference parameter. A…
A variation in the environment of a system, such as the temperature, the concentration of a chemical solution or the appearance of a magnetic field, may lead to a drift in one of the parameters. If the parameter crosses a bifurcation point,…
The dynamics of two active nonlinear resonators coupled to a linear resonator is studied theoretically. Possible stationary states and its dynamical stability are considered in detail. The spontaneous symmetry breaking is found and it is…
Dynamical symmetries are of considerable importance in elucidating the complex behaviour of strongly interacting systems with many degrees of freedom. Paradigmatic examples are cooperative phenomena as they arise in phase transitions, where…
The transition states and dividing surfaces used to find rate constants for bimolecular reactions are shown to undergo qualitative changes, known as Morse bifurcations, and to exist for a large range of energies, not just immediately above…
We further study the stochastic model discussed in Ref.[2] in which positive and negative particles diffuse in an asymmetric, CP invariant way on a ring. The positive particles hop clockwise, the negative counter-clockwise and…
In the framework of an extended phenomenological approach to phase transitions, it is shown that existing nonlinear relation between local critical atomic parameters and phenomenological order parameter induces the corresponding nonlinear…
Evolution equations for the orientation distribution of axisymmetric particles in periodic flows are derived in the regime of small but non-zero Brownian rotations. The equations are based on a multiple time scale approach that allows fast…
We consider an interacting particle system on the one dimensional lattice $\bf Z$ modeling combustion. The process depends on two integer parameters $2\le a<M<\infty$. Particles move independently as continuous time simple symmetric random…
