Edge Currents Shape Condensates in Chiral Active Matter

Boyi Wang, Patrick Pietzonka, Frank Jülicher

Chiral active matter, which breaks both parity symmetry and time-reversal symmetry, is ubiquitous in living systems. Here, we introduce a minimal two-dimensional chiral active latt…

Extreme-Value Statistics of Stochastic Transport Processes: Applications to Molecular Motors and Sports

Alexandre Guillet, Édgar Roldán, Frank Jülicher

We derive exact expressions for the finite-time statistics of extrema (maximum and minimum) of the spatial displacement and the fluctuating entropy flow of biased random walks. Our…

Extreme reductions of entropy in an electronic double dot

Shilpi Singh, Édgar Roldán, Izaak Neri +6

We experimentally study negative fluctuations of stochastic entropy production in an electronic double dot operating in nonequilibrium steady-state conditions. We record millions o…

Detachment of molecular motors under tangential loading

A. Parmeggiani, F. Julicher, L. Peliti +1

We introduce a general framework to study the processivity of molecular motors moving along a polar filament and discuss the average time spent attached to the filament as a functi…

Actively Contracting Bundles of Polar Filaments

Karsten Kruse, Frank Julicher

We introduce a phenomenological model to study the properties of bundles of polar filaments which interact via active elements. The stability of the homogeneous state, the attracto…
