Chiral active fluids: what can we learn from the total momentum?

Tomer Markovich, Tom C. Lubensky

Chiral active materials are those that break both time-reversal symmetry and parity microscopically, which results in average rotation of the material's complex molecules around th…

Nonreciprocity and odd viscosity in chiral active fluids

Tomer Markovich, Tom C. Lubensky

Odd viscosity couples stress to strain rate in a dissipationless way. It has been studied in plasmas under magnetic fields, superfluid , quantum-Hall fluids, and recent…

Emergent Potts Order in a Coupled Hexatic-Nematic XY model

Victor Drouin-Touchette, Peter P. Orth, Piers Coleman +2

Addressing the nature of an unexpected smectic-A' phase in liquid crystal 54COOBC films, we perform large scale Monte Carlo simulations of a coupled hexatic-nematic XY model. The r…

Odd viscosity in active matter: microscopic origin and 3D effects

Tomer Markovich, Tom C. Lubensky

In common fluids, viscosity is associated with dissipation. However, when time-reversal-symmetry is broken a new type of non-dissipative `viscosity' may emerge. Recent theories and…

Multi-functional Twisted-Kagome lattices: Tuning by Pruning Mechanical Metamaterials

Danilo B. Liarte, Olaf Stenull, T. C. Lubensky

This article investigates phonons and elastic response in randomly diluted lattices constructed by combining (via the addition of next-nearest bonds) a twisted kagome lattice, with…

Signatures of Topological Phonons in Superisostatic Lattices

Olaf Stenull, T. C. Lubensky

Soft topological surface phonons in idealized ball-and-spring lattices with coordination number in dimensions become finite-frequency surface phonons in physically reali…
