Noise-driven odd elastic waves in living chiral active matter
Sang Hyun Choi, Zhi-Feng Huang, Nigel Goldenfeld
Chiral active matter is predicted to exhibit odd elasticity, with nontraditional elastic response arising from a combination of chirality, being out of equilibrium, and the presenc…

Power-laws in phylogenetic trees and the preferential coalescent
Stephan Kleinbölting, Nigel Goldenfeld, Johannes Berg
Phylogenetic trees capture evolutionary relationships among species and reflect the forces that shaped them. While many studies rely on branch length information, the topology of p…

Nonlinear Diffusion and Decay of an Expanding Turbulent Blob
Takumi Matsuzawa, Minhui Zhu, Nigel Goldenfeld +1
Turbulence, left unforced, decays and invades the surrounding quiescent fluid. Though ubiquitous, this simple phenomenon has proven hard to capture within a simple and general fram…
