Classification of Intracellular Protein Patterns from Reactive Equilibria
Henrik Weyer, Ching Yee Leung, Erwin Frey
Self-organized spatial patterns are central to nonequilibrium physics and cell biology, yet locating instabilities in multi-component, reaction-diffusion networks remains challengi…
Active Model B from Mass-Conserving Reaction-Diffusion Systems
Davide Toffenetti, Beatrice Nettuno, Henrik Weyer +1
We show that the late-time dynamics of a minimal three-component mass-conserving reaction--diffusion system reduce to a scalar active field theory, Active Model B (AMB), in…
Pattern Formation Beyond Turing: Physical Principles of Mass-Conserving Reaction--Diffusion Systems
Erwin Frey, Henrik Weyer
Intracellular protein patterns govern essential cellular functions by dynamically redistributing proteins between membrane-bound and cytosolic states, conserving their total number…
Deciphering the Interface Laws of Turing Mixtures and Foams
Henrik Weyer, Tobias A. Roth, Erwin Frey
For cellular functions like division and polarization, protein pattern formation driven by NTPase cycles is a central spatial control strategy. Operating far from equilibrium, no g…
Coarsening dynamics of chemotactic aggregates
Henrik Weyer, David Muramatsu, Erwin Frey
Auto-chemotaxis, the directed movement of cells along gradients in chemicals they secrete, is central to the formation of complex spatiotemporal patterns in biological systems. Sin…
Chemotaxis-induced phase separation
Henrik Weyer, David Muramatsu, Erwin Frey
Chemotaxis allows single cells to self-organize at the population level, as classically described by Keller-Segel models. We show that chemotactic aggregation can be understood usi…
Coarsening and wavelength selection far from equilibrium: a unifying framework based on singular perturbation theory
Henrik Weyer, Fridtjof Brauns, Erwin Frey
Intracellular protein patterns are described by (nearly) mass-conserving reaction-diffusion systems. While these patterns initially form out of a homogeneous steady state due to th…
Wavelength selection by interrupted coarsening in reaction-diffusion systems
Fridtjof Brauns, Henrik Weyer, Jacob Halatek +2
Wavelength selection in reaction--diffusion systems can be understood as a coarsening process that is interrupted by counteracting processes at certain wavelengths. We first show t…
Resonant transport and near-field effects in photonic glasses
Geoffroy J. Aubry, Lukas Schertel, Mengdi Chen +5
A fundamental quantity in multiple scattering is the transport mean free path the inverse of which describes the scattering strength of a sample. In this paper, we emphasize the im…
