The most probable path of Active Ornstein-Uhlenbeck particles
arXiv:2212.05941 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevE.107.034110
Abstract
Using the path integral representation of the non-equilibrium dynamics, we compute the most probable path between arbitrary starting and final points, followed by an active particle driven by persistent noise. We focus our attention on the case of active particles immersed in harmonic potentials, where the trajectory can be computed analytically. Once we consider the extended Markovian dynamics where the self-propulsive drive evolves according to an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process, we can compute the trajectory analytically with arbitrary conditions on position and self-propulsion velocity. We test the analytical predictions against numerical simulations and we compare the analytical results with those obtained within approximated equilibrium-like dynamics.
