Topological active matter (2020, background): “…emerge as a result of the particles being immersed in a medium or in contact with a substrate or field that provides linear or angular momentum 2,4,5,52,53,164,169,170,192,203–205,208 In this case of non-reciprocal interactions, the presence of non-Hermitian skin modes can be explained using a…”
Geometry and topology of turbulence in active nematics (2014, background): “The paradigm of “active matter” [1–3] has had notable successes over the past decade in describing selforganization in a surprisingly broad class of biological and bioinspired systems: from flocks of starlings [4,5] to robots [6], down to bacterial colonies [7–11], motile colloids [12,13], and the c”
The statistical physics of active matter: From self-catalytic colloids to living cells (2017, background): “The formation of clusters has been reported for different experimental realizations of self-phoretic colloids and swarms of bacteria [6,40], as shown in Fig.”
