Universal Hyperuniformity in Active Field Theories
Yuanjian Zheng, Michael A. Klatt, Hartmut Löwen
We show that dry scalar-order active field theories (AFTs) are universally hyperuniform, i.e., density fluctuations are anomalously suppressed in the long-time limit regardless of…
Engineering active motion in quantum matter
Alexander P. Antonov, Yuanjian Zheng, Benno Liebchen +1
We introduce a framework for engineering active quantum matter that involves mimicking the role of self-propulsion through an external trapping potential that is moving along impos…
Unconventional rheological properties in systems of deformable particles
Anshuman Pasupalak, Shawn Khuhan Samidurai, Yanwei Li +3
We demonstrate the existence of unconventional rheological and memory properties in systems of soft-deformable particles whose energy depends on their shape, via numerical simulati…
Designing Phononic Band Gaps with Sticky Potentials
Yuanjian Zheng, Shivam Mahajan, Joyjit Chattoraj +1
Spectral gaps in the vibrational modes of disordered solids are key design elements in the synthesis and control of phononic metamaterials that exhibit a plethora of novel elastic…
Mechanical disorder of sticky-sphere glasses. II. Thermo-mechanical inannealability
Karina González-López, Mahajan Shivam, Yuanjian Zheng +2
Many structural glasses feature static and dynamic mechanical properties that can depend strongly on glass formation history. The degree of universality of this history-dependence,…
Hidden Order Beyond Hyperuniformity in Critical Absorbing States
Yuanjian Zheng, Anshul D. S. Parmar, Massimo Pica Ciamarra
Disordered hyperuniformity is a description of hidden correlations in point distributions revealed by an anomalous suppression in fluctuations of local density at various coarse-gr…
Mechanical disorder of sticky-sphere glasses. I. Effect of attractive interactions
Karina González-López, Mahajan Shivam, Yuanjian Zheng +2
Recent literature indicates that attractive interactions between particles of a dense liquid play a secondary role in determining its bulk mechanical properties. Here we show that,…
Rototaxis: localization of active motion under rotation
Yuanjian Zheng, Hartmut Löwen
The ability to navigate in complex, inhomogeneous environments is fundamental to survival at all length scales, giving rise to the rapid development of various subfields in bio-loc…
Hyperuniformity and generalized fluctuations at Jamming
Yuanjian Zheng, Yan-Wei Li, Massimo Pica Ciamarra
The suppression of density fluctuations at different length scales is the hallmark of hyperuniformity. However, its existence and significance in jammed solids is still a matter of…
Irreversible Work Reduction by Disorder in Many-Body Quantum Systems
Yuanjian Zheng, Dario Poletti
We study the effect of disorder on work exchange associated to quantum Hamiltonian processes by considering an Ising spin chain in which the strength of coupling between spins are…
Occurrence of discontinuities in the performance of finite-time quantum Otto cycles
Yuanjian Zheng, Peter Hänggi, Dario Poletti
We study a quantum Otto cycle in which the strokes are performed in finite time. The cycle involves energy measurements at the end of each stroke to allow for the respective determ…
Cost of counterdiabatic driving and work output
Yuanjian Zheng, Steve Campbell, Gabriele De Chiara +1
Unitary processes allow for the transfer of work to and from Hamiltonian systems. However, to achieve nonzero power for the practical extraction of work, these processes must be pe…
Quantum statistics and the performance of engine cycles
Yuanjian Zheng, Dario Poletti
We study the role of quantum statistics in the performance of Otto cycles. First, we show analytically that the work distributions for bosonic and fermionic working fluids are iden…
Work and Efficiency of Quantum Otto Cycles in Power Law Trapping Potentials
Yuanjian Zheng, Dario Poletti
We study the performance of a quantum Otto cycle driven by trapping potentials of the form . This family of potentials possesses a simple scaling property which…
