From Action Principle to Stochastic Thermodynamics of Elastic and Viscous Active Matter
Valentina Barletta, Michele Lupini, Ian D. Estabrook +6
Motivated by the complex material properties of living matter, we derive a framework of stochastic thermo- and elastodynamics for active materials from the classical principle of l…
True and Quasi Long-Range Order in Malthusian Flocks
Patrick Jentsch, Anna Erzberger
Living matter undergoes continuous turnover. The hydrodynamic theory of Malthusian flocks describes polar active matter with turnover, but its phase diagram and nonlinear scaling b…
Feedback between microscopic activity and macroscopic dynamics drives excitability and oscillations in mechanochemical matter
Tim Dullweber, Roman Belousov, Anna Erzberger
The macroscopic behaviour of active matter arises from nonequilibrium microscopic processes. In soft materials, active stresses typically drive macroscopic shape changes, which in…
Boundary geometry controls a topological defect transition that determines lumen nucleation in embryonic development
Pamela C. Guruciaga, Takafumi Ichikawa, Steffen Plunder +2
Topological defects determine the collective properties of anisotropic materials. How their configurations are controlled is not well understood however, especially in 3D. In livin…
Shape Switching and Tunable Oscillations of Adaptive Droplets
Tim Dullweber, Roman Belousov, Camilla Autorino +2
Living materials adapt their shape to signals from the environment, yet the impact of shape changes on signal processing and associated feedback dynamics remain unclear. We find th…
