Critical Properties and Glass Transitions in Randomly Coupled Fields

Amer Al-Hiyasat

We study an assembly of scalar fields coupled via a quenched random interaction, equivalent to a spin glass whose spins are promoted to -dimensional fields. When is larg…

Spatiotemporal noise stabilizes unbounded diversity in strongly-competitive communities

Amer Al-Hiyasat, Daniel W. Swartz, Jeff Gore +1

Classical ecological models predict that diverse communities should be unstable, presenting a central challenge to explaining the stable biodiversity seen in nature. We revisit thi…

Statistical mechanics of a cold tracer in a hot bath

Amer Al-Hiyasat, Sunghan Ro, Julien Tailleur

We study the dynamics of a zero-temperature particle interacting linearly with a bath of hot Brownian particles. Starting with the most general model of a linearly-coupled bath, we…

A Cold Tracer in a Hot Bath: In and Out of Equilibrium

Amer Al-Hiyasat, Sunghan Ro, Julien Tailleur

We study the dynamics of a zero-temperature overdamped tracer in a bath of Brownian particles. As the bath density is increased, numerical simulations show the tracer to transition…

Imaging Dynamic Microtubules and Associated Proteins by Simultaneous Interference-Reflection and Total-Internal-Reflection-Fluorescence Microscopy

Yazgan Tuna, Amer Al-Hiyasat, Jonathon Howard

Several techniques have been employed for the direct visualization of cytoskeletal filaments and their associated proteins. Total-internal-reflection-fluorescence (TIRF) microscopy…

Herding of proteins by the ends of shrinking polymers

Amer Al-Hiyasat, Yazgan Tuna, Yin-Wei Kuo +1

The control of biopolymer length is mediated by proteins that localize to polymer ends and regulate polymerization dynamics. Several mechanisms have been proposed to achieve end lo…
