Flow-polarity decoupling and universal mobility enhancement in dense bacterial active fluids with mesoscale order

Yuhao Wang, Premkumar Leishangthem, Yiming Ding +2

Active fluids consisting of living cells or synthetic microswimmers display rich emergent behavior and nonequilibrium mechanical properties, which not only shed light on various bi…

Emergence of large-scale mechanical spiral waves in bacterial living matter

Shiqi Liu, Ye Li, Yuhao Wang +1

Propagating spiral waves have been discovered in various chemical, biological and physical systems. Spiral waves in multicellular organisms are often associated with essential livi…

Self-enhanced mobility enables vortex pattern formation in living matter

Haoran Xu, Yilin Wu

Emergence of regular spatial patterns is a hallmark in living matter ranging from subcellular organelles to developing embryos and to ecosystems. Mechanisms for the formation of or…

Geometrical control of interface patterning underlies active matter invasion

Haoran Xu, Mehrana R. Nejad, Julia M. Yeomans +1

Interaction between active materials and the boundaries of geometrical confinement is key to many emergent phenomena in active systems. For living active matter consisting of anima…

Autonomous waves and global motion modes in living active solids

Haoran Xu, Yulu Huang, Rui Zhang +1

Elastic active matter or active solid consists of self-propelled units embedded in an elastic matrix. Active solid resists deformation; the shape-preserving property and the intrin…

Categorification of ice quiver mutation

Yilin Wu

In 2009, Keller and Yang categorified quiver mutation by interpreting it in terms of equivalences between derived categories. Their approach was based on Ginzburg's Calabi-Yau alge…

Viscoelastic control of spatiotemporal order in bacterial active matter

Song Liu, Suraj Shankar, M. Cristina Marchetti +1

Active matter consists of units that generate mechanical work by consuming energy. Examples include living systems, such as assemblies of bacteria and biological tissues, biopolyme…

Self-organization of swimmers drives long-range fluid transport in bacterial colonies

Haoran Xu, Justas Dauparas, Debasish Das +2

Bacteria commonly live in structured communities that affect human health and influence ecological systems. Heterogeneous populations, such as motile and non-motile populations, of…
