# gst: collective behavior based on topological vision.

<< The collective dynamics of active particles with topological vision are investigated. The topological vision, defined as a combination of the visual field and topological neighborhoods, breaks the action-reaction symmetry, thereby indicating that active particles exhibit the nonreciprocal topological interactions. >>

<< Furthermore, (AA) model considers position-based attractive force, wherein moving particles navigate using instantaneous visual information from neighboring particles within the topological vision, distinct from conventional models based on the velocity-velocity alignment. (They) demonstrate that the competition between the noise and the nonreciprocal topological interactions results in the emergence of four typical phases: gas phase, ordered phase, nematic bands, and aggregate traveling polar band. >>

<< Moreover, the nonreciprocal topological interactions impact both anomalous diffusion and ergodicity breaking. Specifically, the weak nonreciprocal topological interactions lead to ergodic subdiffusion, while the strong nonreciprocal topological interactions give rise to nonergodic superdiffusion. These findings provide a theoretical basis for understanding the nonequilibrium collective transport of active particles with topological vision. >>

# gst: symmetry breaking in time-dependent billiards.

AA << investigate symmetry breaking in a time-dependent billiard that undergoes a continuous phase transition when dissipation is introduced. The system presents unlimited velocity, and thus energy growth for the conservative dynamics. When inelastic collisions are introduced between the particle and the boundary, the velocity reaches a plateau after the crossover iteration. The system presents the expected behavior for this type of transition, including scale invariance, critical exponents related by scaling laws, and an order parameter approaching zero in the crossover iteration. >>

AA << analyze the velocity spectrum and its averages for dissipative and conservative dynamics. The transition point in velocity behavior caused by the physical limit of the boundary velocity and by the introduced dissipation coincides with the crossover interaction obtained from the Vrms (root mean sq V) curves. Additionally, (they) examine the velocity distributions, which lose their symmetry once the particle's velocity approaches the lower limit imposed by the boundary's motion and the system's control parameters. This distribution is also characterized analytically by an expression P(V,n), which attains a stationary state, with a well-defined upper bound, only in the dissipative case. >>

# gst: diffusion and decay of an expanding turbulent blob; the cascade can leave an indelible footprint far into the decay process


<< Turbulence, left unforced, decays and invades the surrounding quiescent fluid. Though ubiquitous, this simple phenomenon has proven hard to capture within a simple and general framework. >>

Here, AA << circumvent these issues by creating a spatially-localized blob of turbulent fluid using eight converging vortex generators focused towards the center of a tank of water, and observe its decay and spread over decades in time, using particle image velocimetry with a logarithmic sampling rate. >>

<< The blob initially expands and decays until it reaches the walls of the tank and eventually transitions to a second regime of approximately spatially uniform decay. (AA) interpret these dynamics within the framework of a nonlinear diffusion equation, which predicts that the ideal quiescent-turbulent fluid boundary is sharp and propagates non-diffusively, driven by turbulent eddies while decaying with characteristic scaling laws. >>

AA << find direct evidence for this model within the expansion phase of (their) turbulent blob and use it to account for the detailed behavior (they) observe, in contrast to earlier studies. (AA) work provides a detailed spatially-resolved narrative for the behavior of turbulence once the forcing is removed, and demonstrates unexpectedly that the turbulent cascade leaves an indelible footprint far into the decay process. >>

# gst: overcoming overly simplistic representations, chaos and regularity in an anisotropic soft squircle billiard.


<< A hard-wall billiard is a mathematical model describing the confinement of a free particle that collides specularly and instantaneously with boundaries and discontinuities. >>

<< Soft billiards are a generalization that includes a smooth boundary whose dynamics are governed by Hamiltonian equations and overcome overly simplistic representations. >>

AA << study the dynamical features of an anisotropic soft-wall squircle billiard. This curve is a geometric figure that seamlessly blends the angularity of a square with the smooth curves of a circle. (AA) characterize the billiard's emerging trajectories, exhibiting the onset of chaos and its alternation with regularity in the parameter space. (They) characterize the transition to chaos and the stabilization of the dynamics by revealing the nonlinearity of the parameters (squarness, ellipticity, and hardness) via the computation of Poincaré surfaces of section and the Lyapunov exponent across the parameter space. >>

AA << expect (Their) work to introduce a valuable tool to increase understanding of the onset of chaos in soft billiards. >>

# gst: apropos of migrations, asymmetric simple exclusion process with concerted hopping.


<< An important mechanism enabling fast ion diffusion in solid electrolytes is considered to be the significant lowering of the activation barrier when two or more ion particles hop simultaneously between sites, i.e., concerted migration, compared to single-ion hopping. >>

In this study AA << incorporate a mechanism of simultaneous particle hopping into the asymmetric simple exclusion process, which is an archetypal model for many-particle transportation phenomena, and investigate its impact on particle transport properties. >>

In Their model, << reflecting ion dynamics, the hopping rates are controlled by the activation energy, inverse temperature, and strength of an external driving field. (AA) first construct an exact solution that describes the steady state of the proposed model. By using this solution, (They) find that concerted migration substantially increases the particle current and induces a shift of the peak in the fundamental diagram, i.e., the density-current relationship. >>

AA << also show the presence of a critical temperature that maximizes the current. Additionally, we discuss the implications within parameter regions corresponding to actual materials. >>

# gst: homology for structural characterization in disordered systems

<< Local and global structural characterizations emphasize different aspects of materials, with the former focusing on microscopic features like coordination environment, short-range order, bond angles and lengths, and the latter on macroscopic features like long-range order, phase structure, lattice constants, and overall symmetry. In conclusion, local characterization focuses on the environment and structure of individual particles or regions, while global characterization refers to the overall topology or geometry of the material. >>

AA << propose a unified framework based on persistent homology to characterize both local and global structures in disordered systems. It can simultaneously generate local and global descriptors using the same algorithm and data structure, and has been shown to be highly effective and interpretable in predicting particle rearrangements and classifying global phases. >>

AA also << define a nonparametric metric, the separation index, (that) establishes a connection between particle environments and the global phase structure. >>

# gst: stochastic surfing turbulent vorticity.

<< The chaotic dynamics of small-scale vorticity plays a key role in understanding and controlling turbulence, with direct implications for energy transfer, mixing, and coherent structure evolution. >>

Here AA << use a combination of experiments, theory and simulations to show that small magnetic particles of different densities, exploring flow regions of distinct vorticity statistics, can act as effective probes for measuring and forcing turbulence at its smallest scale. The interplay between the magnetic torque, from an externally controllable magnetic field, and hydrodynamic stresses, from small-scale turbulent vorticity, reveals an extremely rich phenomenology. >>

Notably, AA << present the first observation of stochastic resonance for particles in turbulence: turbulent fluctuations, effectively acting as noise, counterintuitively enhance the particle rotational response to external forcing. (They) identify a pronounced resonant peak in particle rotational phase-lag when the applied magnetic field matches the characteristic intensity of small-scale vortices. >>

<< Furthermore, (They) uncover a novel symmetry-breaking mechanism: an oscillating magnetic field with zero-mean angular velocity remarkably induces net particle rotation in turbulence with zero-mean vorticity, as turbulent fluctuations aid the particle in "surfing" the magnetic field. >>

# gst: switching from active Brownian motion to stationary rotation of Janus particles in a viscoelastic fluid.

<< Swimming micro-objects exist in viscoelastic fluids. Elucidating the effect of viscoelasticity on the motion of these objects is important for understanding their behavior. >>

AA << examined the motion of Janus particles self-propelled by induced charge electrophoresis over a wide range of speeds in semidilute polymer solutions. In (Their) system, the motion of Janus particles changed from active Brownian motion to stationary rotation as the speed increased. The torque for stationary rotation originates from the difference between the direction of self-propulsion and that of the time-delayed restoring force from the polymer solution, which has been reported in another self-propelled particle system. The switch from active Brownian motion to stationary rotation at different polymer concentrations can be explained by the Weisenberg number, which is defined as the ratio of the relaxation time of the polymer network to the travel time of the Janus particle to its size. >>

# gst: multiparticle dispersion in rotating-stratified turbulent flows (when stratification increases turbulent fluctuations may not be weaker)

AA << study the relative movement of groups of two (pairs) and four (tetrahedra) Lagrangian particles using direct numerical simulations of the stably stratified Boussinsesq equations, with Brunt-Väisälä frequency 𝑁 and Coriolis parameter 𝑓. >>

<< In all cases considered, (AA) demonstrate that the relative particle motion differs depending on whether dispersion is considered forward or backward in time, although the asymmetry becomes less pronounced when stratification and rotation increase. On the other hand, the strong fluctuations in the dispersion between two particles become more extreme when 𝑁 and 𝑓  increase. (They) also find evidence for the formation of shear layers, which become more pronounced as 𝑁 and 𝑓  become larger. Finally, (They) show that the irreversibility on the dispersion of a set of particles initially forming a regular tetrahedron becomes weaker when the influence of stratification and rotation increases, a property that (They) relate to that of the perceived rate-of-strain tensor. >>️

<< Unexpectedly, (AA) observe that the higher moments of particle separation, in particular the normalized fourth-order central moment of the separation (the kurtosis Kr) is an increasing function of stratification and rotation. This is surprising, as when stratification increases the turbulent fluctuations are expected to be weaker, (..) >>️

# gst: asymptotic scaling in a one-dimensional billiard

<< The emergence of power laws that govern the large-time dynamics of a one-dimensional billiard of N point particles is analysed. In the initial state, the resting particles are placed in the positive half-line x≥0 at equal distances. Their masses alternate between two distinct values. The dynamics is initialized by giving the leftmost particle a positive velocity. >>

<< Due to elastic inter-particle collisions the whole system gradually comes into motion, filling both right and left half-lines. As shown by S. Chakraborti, et al. (2022), an inherent feature of such a billiard is the emergence of two different modes: the shock wave that propagates in x≥0 and the splash region in x<0. >>

<< Moreover, the behaviour of the relevant observables is characterized by universal asymptotic power-law dependencies. In view of the finite size of the system and of finite observation times, these dependencies only start to acquire a universal character. To analyse them, (AA) set up molecular dynamics simulations using the concept of effective scaling exponents, familiar in the theory of continuous phase transitions. (They) present results for the effective exponents that govern the large-time behaviour of the shock-wave front, the number of collisions, the energies and momentum of different modes and analyse their tendency to approach corresponding universal values. >>️

<< A characteristic feature of the billiard problem (AA) have considered (..) is the lack of a priori randomness, neither in the distribution of masses nor in the inter-particle distances. Therefore, the emergence of the hydrodynamic power-law asymptotics– pointing to the stochastic background of the underlying process– may be interpreted as a kind of self-averaging in the system.  >>️

# gst: First-passage-time statistics of active Brownian particles: a perturbative approach.


AA << study the first-passage-time (FPT) properties of active Brownian particles to reach an absorbing wall in two dimensions. Employing a perturbation approach (They) obtain exact analytical predictions for the survival and FPT distributions for small Péclet numbers, measuring the importance of self-propulsion relative to diffusion. >>

<< While randomly oriented active agents reach the wall faster than their passive counterpart, their initial orientation plays a crucial role in the FPT statistics. Using the median as a metric, (AA) quantify this anisotropy and find that it becomes more pronounced at distances where persistent active motion starts to dominate diffusion. >>️

# gst: emergent flocking in mixtures of antialigning self-propelled particles.

FIG. 4. (c) Mean field phase diagram with disorder (green triangles), polarized moving bands (blue circles), and polarized patches (orange squares).


AA << observe a flocking mechanism, the emergence of a state with global polar order, in mixed systems of self-propelled particles with purely antialigning interactions, i.e., the ground state for any pair of particles is to be opposedly oriented. In binary mixtures, (They) find that flocking can be realized by cross-species antialigning that is dominant compared to intraspecies antialignment. >>

<< While the key mechanism can be understood within a mean-field description, beyond mean-field (AA) develop an asymptotically exact Boltzmann-scattering theory from first principles.  This theory yields analytical predictions for the flocking transition and shows excellent quantitative agreement with simulations of dilute systems. For large systems, (They) find either microphase separation or static patterns with patches or stripes that carry different polarization orientations. >>️

# gst: attraction-enhanced emergence of friction (in colloidal matter)


<< How frictional effects emerge at the microscopic level in particulate materials remains a challenging question, particularly in systems subject to thermal fluctuations due to the transient nature of interparticle contacts. >>

Here, AA << directly relate particle-level frictional arrest to local coordination in an attractive colloidal model system. (They) reveal that the orientational dynamics of particles slows down exponentially with increasing coordination number due to the emergence of frictional interactions, the strength of which can be tuned simply by varying the attraction strength. Using a simple computer simulation model, (they) uncover how the interparticle interactions govern the formation of frictional contacts between particles. >>

AA << results establish quantitative relations between friction, coordination, and interparticle interactions. This is a key step toward using interparticle friction to tune the mechanical properties of particulate materials. >>️

<< Importantly, almost all theoretical and simulation studies on such systems do not account for interparticle friction. Incorporating frictional constraints to rolling and sliding between particles will likely have a pronounced effect on a variety of phenomena studied in attractive colloidal matter such as gel formation, coarsening and failure. >>

# gst: alignment-induced self-organization of autonomously steering microswimmers: turbulence, clusters, vortices, and jets.


<< Microorganisms can sense their environment and adapt their movement accordingly, which gives rise to a multitude of collective phenomena, including active turbulence and bioconvection. In fluid environments, collective self-organization is governed by hydrodynamic interactions. >>

<< By large-scale mesoscale hydrodynamics simulations, (AA) study the collective motion of polar microswimmers, which align their propulsion direction by hydrodynamic steering with that of their neighbors. The simulations of the employed squirmer model reveal a distinct dependence on the type of microswimmer—puller or pusher—flow field. No global polar alignment emerges in both cases. Instead, the collective motion of pushers is characterized by active turbulence, with nearly homogeneous density and a Gaussian velocity distribution; strong self-steering enhances the local coherent movement of microswimmers and leads to local fluid-flow speeds much larger than the individual swim speed. >>

<< Pullers exhibit a strong tendency for clustering and display velocity and vorticity distributions with fat exponential tails; their dynamics is chaotic, with a temporal appearance of vortex rings and fluid jets. >>

AA << results show that the collective behavior of autonomously steering microswimmers displays a rich variety of dynamic self-organized structures. >>

# gst: apropos of subdiffusive behaviors, the boomerang effect in classical stochastic models.

<< The phenomenon of Anderson localization, occurring in a disordered medium, significantly influences the dynamics of quantum particles. A fascinating manifestation of this is the “quantum boomerang effect” (QBE), observed when a quantum particle, propelled with a finite initial velocity, reverses its average trajectory, eventually halting at its starting point. >>

AA << uncover evidence of a similar effect in classical systems, characterized by the absence of typical diffusion processes. (Their) investigation encompasses both simplified probabilistic models and more complex phenomenological models that link classical with quantum mechanics. The results indicate that the boomerang effect is not confined to the quantum realm and may also be present in diverse systems exhibiting subdiffusive behavior. >>️

# gst: phenomenology of cracks in thin colloidal films (undergoing desiccation)


<< A number of geometric and topological properties of samples of crack-template based conductive films are examined to assess the degree to which Voronoi diagrams can successfully model structure and conductivity in such networks. >>

AA << analysis suggests that although Poisson-Voronoi diagrams are only partially successful in modeling structural features of real-world crack patterns formed in films undergoing desiccation, such diagrams can nevertheless be useful in situations where topological characteristics are more important than geometric ones. A phenomenological model is proposed that is more accurate at capturing features of the real-world crack patterns. >>️

# gst: scattered waves fuel emergent activity.


<< Active matter taps into external energy sources to power its own processes. Systems of passive particles ordinarily lack this capacity, but can become active if the constituent particles interact with each other nonreciprocally. By reformulating the theory of classical wave-matter interactions, (AA) demonstrate that interactions mediated by scattered waves generally are not constrained by Newton's third law. The resulting center-of-mass forces propel clusters of scatterers, enabling them to extract energy from the wave and rendering them active. This form of activity is an emergent property of the scatterers' state of organization and can arise in any system where mobile objects scatter waves. Emergent activity flips the script on conventional active matter whose nonreciprocity emerges from its activity, and not the other way around. >>

AA << combine theory, experiment, and simulation to illustrate how emergent activity arises in wave-matter composite systems and to explore the phenomenology of emergent activity in experimentally accessible models. These preliminary studies suggest that heterogeneity is a singular perturbation to the dynamics of wave-matter composite systems, and induces emergent activity under all but the most limited circumstances. >>️

AA << study an intriguing new type of self-assembled active colloidal polymer system in 3D. It is obtained from a suspension of Janus particles in an electric field that induces parallel dipoles in the particles as well as self-propulsion in the plane perpendicular to the field. >>

<< At low volume fractions, in experiment, the particles self-assemble into 3D columns that are self-propelled in 2D. Explicit numerical simulations combining dipolar interactions and active self-propulsion find an activity dependent transition to a string phase by increasing dipole strength. >>

AA << classify the collective dynamics of strings as a function of rotational and translational diffusion. (..) (They) also discover long range correlations of the fluctuations along the string contour that grow with the active persistence time, a purely active effect that disappears in the thermal limit. >>

# gst: diffusion of active particles driven by odd interactions.

<< Odd systems do not conserve energy, violate time-reversal symmetry, and remain far from equilibrium. How odd interactions between particles affect their diffusion remains unknown. >>

<< To investigate this issue, (AA) studied the diffusion and glass transition of a two-dimensional Kob-Andersen mixture, where Brownian particles interact via the Lennard-Jones potential and nonconservative odd forces. (Their) findings indicate a significant influence of odd interactions on the system's diffusion dynamics. Odd interactions always promote diffusion. These interactions lead to a nonmonotonic relationship between the effective diffusion coefficient and particle number density. >>

<< Specifically, in systems with low oddness, the diffusion coefficient decreases steadily with increasing particle number density. Conversely, in systems with moderate oddness, an optimal particle number density exists that maximizes the diffusion coefficient. For systems with high oddness, (AA) observe two distinct peaks in the diffusion coefficient-particle number density relationship. >>

<< Furthermore, (AA) investigation into the glass transition under dense conditions reveals that adjusting the oddness at low temperatures can induce a transition from a glassy state to a liquid state. >>

# gst: chimera states in a system of stationary and flying-through deterministic particles with an internal degree of freedom.

<< This work greatly extends (AA)  understanding of the dynamics of flying-through oscillators in media with nonlocal interaction. >>

<< Let’s describe the results obtained. First, it was shown that, depending on the number of potential wells, particles can be stationary, flying-through, or split into two subensembles of stationary and flying-through particles.  Secondly, it has been demonstrated that in the case of stationary arrangement of particles, the fully synchronous regime can become unstable due to the inhomogeneity of particle distribution between potential wells. In a partially synchronous cluster, phase incoherent elements can be located within the same potential well. Third, when stationary and flying-through elements coexist, chimera regimes are realized at each subensemble and further coexist with each other. This means that, despite the nonlocal nature of the interaction between elements of the medium, what is important for structure formation is a relatively stable mutual arrangement of particles relative to each other, which leads to a chimera state in each of the subensemble. >>️
