Growth phases of an active tissue: determinate, indeterminate, and proportionate
Jigyasa Watwani, K. Vijay Kumar, Vishal Vasan
Growth may cease at a target size or continue throughout life: the determinate and indeterminate phenotypes. We develop an active viscoelastic continuum model of a tissue growing a…

Influence of boundary geometry on active patterns
Jigyasa Watwani, Sakshi Pahujani, V Jemseena +2
Mechanochemical patterns arising in the actomyosin cortex drive many cellular processes. Here we consider a hydrodynamic model for the actomyosin cortex of cells and study the sens…

Leading and beyond leading-order spectral form factor in chaotic quantum many-body systems across all Dyson symmetry classes
Vijay Kumar, Tomaž Prosen, Dibyendu Roy
We show the emergence of random matrix theory (RMT) spectral correlations in the chaotic phase of generic periodically kicked interacting quantum many-body systems by analytically…
