Beyond local detailed balance: Microscopic rates reshape nonequilibrium phase behavior

Takahiro Kanazawa, Kyogo Kawaguchi, Kyosuke Adachi

Local detailed balance (LDB) is a central guiding principle for modeling nonequilibrium stochastic dynamics, yet it only constrains the ratio of forward and backward transition rat…

Hermitian and non-Hermitian topology in active matter

Kazuki Sone, Kazuki Yokomizo, Kyogo Kawaguchi +1

Self-propulsion is a quintessential aspect of biological systems, which can induce nonequilibrium phenomena that have no counterparts in passive systems. Motivated by biophysical i…

Experimental identification of force, velocity, and nematic order relationships in active nematic cell monolayers

Masahito Uwamichi, He Li, Zihui Zhao +4

Cell alignment often forms nematic order, which can lead to anomalous collective cell flow due to the so-called active force. Although it is appreciated that cell migration is driv…

Predicting heteropolymer interactions: demixing and hypermixing of disordered protein sequences

Kyosuke Adachi, Kyogo Kawaguchi

Cells contain multiple condensates which spontaneously form due to the heterotypic interactions between their components. Although the proteins and disordered region sequences that…

Activity-induced ferromagnetism in one-dimensional quantum many-body systems

Kazuaki Takasan, Kyosuke Adachi, Kyogo Kawaguchi

We study a non-Hermitian quantum many-body model in one dimension analogous to the Vicsek model or active spin models, and investigate its quantum phase transitions. The model cons…

Universality of active and passive phase separation in a lattice model

Kyosuke Adachi, Kyogo Kawaguchi

The motility-induced phase separation (MIPS) is the spontaneous aggregation of active particles, while equilibrium phase separation (EPS) is thermodynamically driven by attractive…

Chirality-driven edge flow and non-Hermitian topology in active nematic cells

Lisa Yamauchi, Tomoya Hayata, Masahito Uwamichi +2

Many of the biological phenomena involve collective dynamics driven by self-propelled motion and nonequilibrium force (i.e., activity) that result in features unexpected from equil…

Activity-induced phase transition in a quantum many-body system

Kyosuke Adachi, Kazuaki Takasan, Kyogo Kawaguchi

A crowd of nonequilibrium entities can show phase transition behaviors that are prohibited in conventional equilibrium setups. An interesting question is whether similar activity-d…
