Interface Fluctuations in a Turbulent Binary Fluid using Data-Driven Methods

Samuel Z Khiangte, Triparna Sanyal, Sumantra Sarkar +1

Interfacial fluctuations in a two-phase binary fluid mixture reveal signatures of underlying physical processes that occur within each phase and on a range of spatial and temporal…

Glassy dynamics in active epithelia emerge from an interplay of mechanochemical feedback and crowding

Sindhu Muthukrishnan, Phanindra Dewan, Tanishq Tejaswi +6

Glassy dynamics in active biological cells remain a subject of debate, as cellular activity rarely slows enough for true glassy features to emerge. In this study, we address this p…

Symmetry-protected phases in a 1D active solid with mechanochemical feedback

Soumyadeep Mondal, Phanindra Dewan, Lakshman Santhosh Kumar +1

We present a framework for mechanochemical self-organization in active solids where elasticity is reciprocally coupled to Hopf oscillators. Our model reveals a rich landscape of sy…

Molecular communication in one-dimensional channels with active transport and crowding

Phanindra Dewan, Sumantra Sarkar

Molecular communication (MC) is a model of information transmission where the signal is transmitted by information-carrying molecules through their physical transport from a transm…

Self-diffusion is temperature independent on active membranes

Saurav G. Varma, Argha Mitra, Sumantra Sarkar

Molecular transport maintains cellular structures and functions. For example, lipid and protein diffusion sculpts the dynamic shapes and structures on the cell membrane that perfor…

Coarsening of topological defects in 2D polar active matter

Soumyadeep Mondal, Pankaj Popli, Sumantra Sarkar

We numerically study the coarsening of topological defects in 2D polar active matter and make several interesting observations and predictions. (i) The long time state is character…
