Critical active dynamics is captured by a colored-noise driven field theory

Abstract
We numerically investigate the correlation function, the response and the breakdown of the Fluctuation-Dissipation Theorem (FDT) in active particles close to the motility-induced critical point. We find a strong FDT violation in the short time and wavelength regime, where the response function has a larger amplitude than the fluctuation spectrum. Conversely, at larger spatiotemporal scales, the FDT is restored and the critical slowing-down is compatible with the Ising universality class. Building on these results, we develop a novel field-theoretical description employing a space-time correlated noise which qualitatively captures the numerical results already at the Gaussian level. By performing a one-loop renormalization group analysis we show that the correlated noise does not change the critical exponents with respect to the equilibrium. Our results demonstrate that a correlated noise field is a fundamental ingredient to capture the features of critical active matter at the coarse-grained level.
