Classification of topological phases of matter in stochastic systems

Dexin Li, Evelyn Tang

Topological phases of matter support edge states protected from random perturbations, and the identification of the discrete non-spatial symmetries and dimensions that support such…

Robust topological oscillators govern a tunable phase transition to synchronized circadian rhythms

Chongbin Zheng, Peter Thomas, Evelyn Tang

While synchronization has been well-studied in deterministic oscillators, most underlying oscillators are stochastic in both natural and man-made systems. Yet, the effects of intri…

The unique control features of topological stochastic and quantum systems

Ziyin Xiong, Aleksandra Nelson, Evelyn Tang

Topological phases support edge states that can be robust to material deformations and other perturbations. While well-studied in quantum systems, topological phases have also been…

Analytical topological invariants for 2D non-Hermitian phases using Morse theory

Cameron Gibson, Evelyn Tang

As energy dissipation and gain are ubiquitous in the real world, such phenomena demand the generalization of Hermitian methods such as the analysis of topological properties for no…

Topological edge currents promote exploratory search in microtubule dynamic instability

Chongbin Zheng, Jaime Agudo-Canalejo, Jonathon Howard +1

Microtubules capture chromosomes during mitosis by stochastically switching between growth and shrinkage at catastrophe events. They display strikingly rich biochemistry and dynami…

Topology of the simplest gene switch

Aleksandra Nelson, Peter Wolynes, Evelyn Tang

Complex gene regulatory networks often display emergent simple behavior. Sometimes this simplicity can be traced to a nearly equivalent energy landscape, but not always. Here, we s…

Topological edge flows drive macroscopic re-organization in magnetic colloids

Aleksandra Nelson, Dana M. Lobmeyer, Sibani L. Biswal +1

Magnetic colloids can be driven with time-varying fields to form clusters and voids that re-organize over vastly different timescales. However, the driving force behind these non-e…

Topological phases in discrete stochastic systems

Jaime Agudo-Canalejo, Evelyn Tang

Topological invariants have proved useful for analyzing emergent function as they characterize a property of the entire system, and are insensitive to local details, disorder, and…

Non-reciprocity is necessary for robust dimensional reduction and strong responses in stochastic topological systems

Aleksandra Nelson, Evelyn Tang

Topological theory predicts the necessary conditions for robust dimensional reduction in a host of quantum and classical systems. Models have recently been proposed for stochastic…
