Anomalous Criticality of Absorbing State Transition toward Jamming
He-Da Wang, Bo Wang, Qun-Li Lei +1
Jamming transition is traditionally regarded as a geometric transition governed by static contact networks. Recently, dynamic phase transitions of athermal particles under periodic…
Liquid-Gas Criticality of Hyperuniform Fluids
Shang Gao, Hao Shang, Hao Hu +2
In statistical physics, it is well established that the liquid-gas (LG) phase transition with divergent critical fluctuations belongs to the Ising universality class. Whether non-e…
Fluidization and anomalous density fluctuations in 2D Voronoi cell tissues with pulsating activity
Zhu-Qin Li, Qun-Li Lei, Yu-qiang Ma
Cells not only can be motile by crawling but are also capable of non-motility active motions like periodic contraction or pulsation. In this work, based on a Voronoi cell model, we…
Activity-driven polymer knotting for macromolecular topology engineering
Jia-Xiang Li, Song Wu, Li-Li Hao +2
Macromolecules can gain special properties by adopting knotted conformations, but engineering knotted macromolecules is a challenging task. Here we surprisingly observed that knott…
Self-Organized Time Crystal in Driven-Dissipative Quantum System
Ya-Xin Xiang, Qun-Li Lei, Zhengyang Bai +1
Continuous time crystals (CTCs) are characterized by sustained oscillations that break the time translation symmetry. Since the ruling out of equilibrium CTCs by no-go theorems, th…
