Nonreciprocity and odd viscosity in chiral active fluids
Tomer Markovich, Tom C. Lubensky
Odd viscosity couples stress to strain rate in a dissipationless way. It has been studied in plasmas under magnetic fields, superfluid , quantum-Hall fluids, and recent…

Non-affine deformation of semiflexible polymer and fiber networks
Sihan Chen, Tomer Markovich, Fred C. MacKintosh
Networks of semiflexible or stiff polymers such as most biopolymers are known to deform inhomogeneously when sheared. The effects of such non-affine deformation have been shown to…

Motor-free contractility of active biopolymer networks
Sihan Chen, Tomer Markovich, Fred C. MacKintosh
Contractility in animal cells is often generated by molecular motors such as myosin, which require polar substrates for their function. Motivated by recent experimental evidence of…
