Non-reciprocal phase transitions

M Fruchart, R Hanai, PB Littlewood, V Vitelli - Nature, 2021‏ - nature.com
Out of equilibrium, a lack of reciprocity is the rule rather than the exception. Non-reciprocity
occurs, for instance, in active matter,,,,–, non-equilibrium systems,–, networks of neurons …
