Routes to chaos in a mass-conserving two-species reaction-diffusion model

Simón Navia Rafide, Uwe Thiele

Mass-conserving reaction-diffusion systems with two species correspond to a seemingly simple case where pattern formation occurs under the influence of a conservation law. Here, we…

Mean-Field Theory of Chiral Active Model B: Arrested Coarsening and Chiral Fingering Instabilities

Kristian Blom, Uwe Thiele

We derive and analyze a mean-field theory of the chiral Ising model recently introduced by Wang, Pietzonka, and Jülicher in "Edge Currents Shape Condensates in Chiral Active Matter…

Strong Mpemba Effect Through a Reentrant Phase Transition

Kristian Blom, Doron Benyamin, Uwe Thiele +2

We investigate temperature quenches across the reentrant phase transition of the antiferromagnetic Ising model in a magnetic field and show that it provides a natural mechanism for…

Nonlinear physics of axion inflation

Oleksandr Sobol, Richard von Eckardstein, Elias Koch +3

An axion-like field coupled to an Abelian gauge field provides one of the simplest inflationary models that is free from the eta problem and possesses an efficient reheating mechan…

Higher-codimension points as organizing centers in nonreciprocal pattern-forming systems with O(2)-symmetry

Yuta Tateyama, Daniel Greve, Hiroaki Ito +3

Focusing on a two-field Swift-Hohenberg model with linear nonreciprocal interactions, this study investigates how emerging higher-codimension points act as organizing centers for t…

What is active wetting?

Uwe Thiele

In recent years the term \textit{active wetting} has gained some traction in works describing, analyzing and modeling a wide variety of wetting phenomena, for instance, in the cont…

Gradient dynamics model for chemically driven running drops

Justus Niehoff, Florian Voss, Uwe Thiele

We present a thermodynamically consistent model for chemically driven running drops on a solid substrate with reversible substrate adsorption of a wettability-changing chemical spe…

From bipedal to chaotic motion of chemically fueled partially wetting liquid drops

Florian Voss, Uwe Thiele

We employ a thermodynamically consistent out-of-equilibrium continuum model to study the motion patterns of partially wetting liquid drops covered by autocatalytically reacting sur…

Dynamic Models for Two Nonreciprocally Coupled Fields: A Microscopic Derivation for Zero, One, and Two Conservation Laws

Kristian Blom, Uwe Thiele, Aljaž Godec

We construct dynamic models governing two nonreciprocally coupled fields for several cases with zero, one, and two conservation laws. Starting from two microscopic nonreciprocally…

Chemomechanical motility modes of partially wetting liquid droplets

Florian Voss, Uwe Thiele

We consider a simple thermodynamically consistent model that captures the self-organized chemomechanical coupling resulting from the interplay between autocatalytically reacting su…

The effect of self-induced Marangoni flow on polar-nematic waves in active-matter systems

Andrey Pototsky, Uwe Thiele

We study the formation of propagating large-scale density waves of mixed polar-nematic symmetry in a colony of self-propelled agents that are bound to move along the planar surface…

Motility-induced crystallization and rotating crystallites

Max Philipp Holl, Alina Barbar Steinberg, Uwe Thiele

Active soft matter frequently shows motility-induced phase separation (MIPS), where self-propelled particles condensate into clusters with an inner liquid-like structure. Such acti…

Localized States in Dipolar Bose-Einstein Condensates: To be or not to be of second order

Alina Barbara Steinberg, Fabian Maucher, Svetlana Gurevich +1

We report the existence of localized states in dipolar Bose-Einstein condensates confined to a tubular geometry. We first perform a bifurcation analysis to track their emergence in…

Soft Condensation

Ambre Bouillant, Christopher Henkel, Uwe Thiele +2

When moist air meets a cold surface, it creates a breath figure characterized by numerous small droplets. The central question is how the vapor flux is distributed between the grow…
