Density-protected states in active matter under virtual confinement
Giuseppe Fava, Francesco Ginelli, Benoît Mahault
We investigate photo-responsive structure formation in a minimal model of dry active nematics. Combining microscopic simulations with the analysis of the corresponding hydrodynamic…

Boundary symmetry breaking of flocking systems
Leonardo Lenzini, Giuseppe Fava, Francesco Ginelli
We consider a flocking system confined transversally between two infinite reflecting parallel walls separated by a distance . Infinite or periodic boundary conditions are…
