Event-based spatiotemporal networks for modelling emergent phenomena in complex systems
Matthijs Romeijnders, Michiel van Boven, Francesco Corman +3
Complex systems display emergent phenomena that vary significantly across spatial and temporal scales. These variations originate from fine-grained system processes, yet arriving a…
Disorder-induced persistent random motion and trapping of microswimmers
Mirko Residori, Sebastian Aland, Christina Kurzthaler
Microorganisms ofter move in confined, disordered environments, where hydrodynamic couplings can modify their transport behavior. Using extensive finite-element simulations, we inv…
TopoSPAM: Topology grounded Simulation Platform for morphogenesis and biological Active Matter
Abhinav Singh, Abhijeet Krishna, Aboutaleb Amiri +11
We present a topology grounded, multiscale simulation platform for morphogenesis and biological active matter. Morphogenesis and biological active matter represent keystone problem…
Modes of Mechanical Guidance of Adhesion-Independent Cell Migration
Hanna Luise Gertack, Peter A. E. Hampshire, Claudia Wohlgemuth +2
Adhesion-independent migration is a prominent mode of cell motility in confined environments, yet the physical principles that guide such movement remain incompletely understood. W…
Extreme Synchronization Transitions
Seungjae Lee, Lennart J. Kuklinski, Marc Timme
Across natural and human-made systems, transition points mark sudden changes of order and are thus key to understanding overarching system features. Motivated by recent experimenta…
Hamiltonian description of nonreciprocal interactions
Yu-Bo Shi, Roderich Moessner, Ricard Alert +1
In a vast class of systems, which includes members as diverse as sedimenting particles and bird flocks, interactions do not stem from a potential, and are in general nonreciprocal.…
From Heteropolymer Stiffness Distributions to Effective Homopolymers: A Conformational Analysis of Intrinsically Disordered Proteins
Yannick Witzky, Friederike Schmid, Arash Nikoubashman
Synthetic copolymers and biopolymers, such as polypeptides and double-stranded DNA, often exhibit strong variations in bending stiffness along their contour, which can significantl…
Synchrony for weak coupling in the complexified Kuramoto model
Moritz Thümler, Shesha G. M. Srinivas, Malte Schröder +1
We present the finite-size Kuramoto model analytically continued from real to complex variables and analyze its collective dynamics. For strong coupling, synchrony appears through…
Topological Determinants of Perturbation Spreading in Networks
Xiaozhu Zhang, Dirk Witthaut, Marc Timme
Spreading phenomena essentially underlie the dynamics of various natural and technological networked systems, yet how spatiotemporal propagation patterns emerge from such networks…
Non Equilibrium Transitions in a Polymer Replication Ensemble
Arthur Genthon, Carl D. Modes, Frank Jülicher +1
The fuel-driven process of replication in living systems generates distributions of copied entities with varying degrees of copying accuracy. Here we introduce a thermodynamically…
Complexified Synchrony
Seungjae Lee, Lucas Braun, Frieder Bönisch +3
The Kuramoto model and its generalizations have been broadly employed to characterize and mechanistically understand various collective dynamical phenomena, especially the emergenc…
Probe particles in odd active viscoelastic fluids: how activity and dissipation determine linear stability
Charlie Duclut, Stefano Bo, Ruben Lier +3
Odd viscoelastic materials are constrained by fewer symmetries than their even counterparts. The breaking of these symmetries allow these materials to exhibit different features, w…
Charge separation at liquid interfaces
Arghya Majee, Christoph A. Weber, Frank Jülicher
We present a theory for phase-separated liquid coacervates with salt, taking into account spatial heterogeneities and interfacial profiles. We find that charged layers of alternati…
Impossible ecologies: Interaction networks and stability of coexistence in ecological communities
Yu Meng, Szabolcs Horvát, Carl D. Modes +1
Does an ecological community allow stable coexistence? Identifying the general principles that determine the answer to this question is a central problem of theoretical ecology. Ra…
Local polar order controls mechanical stress and triggers layer formation in developing Myxococcus xanthus colonies
Endao Han, Chenyi Fei, Ricard Alert +4
Colonies of the social bacterium Myxococcus xanthus go through a morphological transition from a thin colony of cells to three-dimensional droplet-like fruiting bodies as a strateg…
Stretched exponential to power-law: crossover of relaxation in a kinetically constrained model
Sukanta Mukherjee, Puneet Pareek, Mustansir Barma +1
The autocorrelation function in many complex systems shows a crossover in the form of its decay: from stretched exponential relaxation (SER) at short times to power law at long tim…
Coordinated motion of epithelial layers on curved surfaces
Lea Happel, Axel Voigt
Coordinated cellular movements are key processes in tissue morphogenesis. Using a cell-based modeling approach we study the dynamics of epithelial layers lining surfaces with const…
Twofold mechanosensitivity ensures actin cortex reinforcement upon peaks in mechanical tension
Valentin Ruffine, Andreas Hartmann, Michael Schlierf +1
The actin cortex is an active biopolymer network underneath the plasma membrane at the periphery of mammalian cells. It is a major regulator of cell shape through the generation of…
An open-source pipeline for solving continuous reaction-diffusion models in image-based geometries of porous media
Justina Stark, Ivo F. Sbalzarini
We present a versatile open-source pipeline for simulating inhomogeneous reaction-diffusion processes in highly resolved, image-based geometries of porous media with reactive bound…
Theory of rheology and aging of protein condensates
Ryota Takaki, Louise Jawerth, Marko Popović +1
Biological condensates are assemblies of proteins and nucleic acids that form membraneless compartments in cells and play essential roles in cellular functions. In many cases they…
Entropically damped artificial compressibility for the discretization corrected particle strength exchange method in incompressible fluid mechanics
Abhinav Singh, Ivo F. Sbalzarini, Anas Obeidat
We present a consistent mesh-free numerical scheme for solving the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. Our method is based on entropically damped artificial compressibility for…
The interplay of geometry and coarsening in multicomponent lipid vesicles under the influence of hydrodynamics
Elena Bachini, Veit Krause, Axel Voigt
We consider the impact of surface hydrodynamics on the interplay between curvature and composition in coarsening processes on model systems for biomembranes. This includes scaling…
Spontaneous flow instabilities of active polar fluids in three dimensions
Abhinav Singh, Quentin Vagne, Frank Jülicher +1
Active polar fluids exhibit spontaneous flow when sufficient active stress is generated by internal molecular mechanisms. This is also referred to as an active Fréedericksz transit…
