Multiscale geometrical and topological learning in the analysis of soft matter collective dynamics

Tetiana Orlova, Amaranta Membrillo Solis, Hayley R. O. Sohn +5

Understanding the behavior and evolution of a dynamical many-body system by analyzing patterns in their experimentally captured images is a promising method relevant for a variety…

Topological carnival: electrically-powered motions of toron crystallites in chiral liquid crystals

Hayley R. O. Sohn, Ivan I. Smalyukh

Malleability of metals is an example of how dynamics of defects like dislocations induced by external stresses alters material properties and enables technological applications. Ho…

Optically enriched and guided dynamics of active skyrmions

Hayley R. O. Sohn, Changda D. Liu, Robert Voinescu +2

Light provides a powerful means of controlling physical behavior of materials but is rarely used to power and guide active matter systems. We demonstrate optical control of liquid…

Light-controlled skyrmions and torons as reconfigurable particles

Hayley R. O. Sohn, Changda D. Liu, Ivan I. Smalyukh

Topological solitons, such as skyrmions, arise in field theories of systems ranging from Bose-Einstein condensates to optics, particle physics, and cosmology, but they are rarely a…

Schools of skyrmions with electrically tunable elastic interactions

Hayley R. O. Sohn, Changda D. Liu, Ivan I. Smalyukh

Coexistence of order and fluidity in soft matter often mimics that in biology, allowing for complex dynamics and applications like displays. In active soft matter, emergent order c…

Real-space observation of skyrmion clusters with mutually orthogonal skyrmion tubes

Hayley. R. O. Sohn, Sergei M. Vlasov, Valeriy M. Uzdin +2

We report the discovery and direct visualization of skyrmion clusters with mutually-orthogonal orientations of constituent isolated skyrmions in chiral liquid crystals and ferromag…
