Self-propelled particles include both self-phoretic synthetic colloids and various
microorganisms. By continually consuming energy, they bypass the laws of equilibrium …

Active matter encompasses systems whose individual constituents dissipate energy to exert
propelling forces on their environment. These systems exhibit dynamical phenomena with …

Stochastic thermodynamics as reviewed here systematically provides a framework for
extending the notions of classical thermodynamics such as work, heat and entropy …

Stationary nonequilibrium states describe steady flows through macroscopic systems.
Although they represent the simplest generalization of equilibrium states, they exhibit a …

The physics of non-equilibrium many-body systems is a rapidly expanding area of
theoretical physics. Traditionally employed in laser physics and superconducting kinetics …

It is known that purely repulsive self-propelled colloids can undergo bulk liquid-vapor phase
separation. In experiments and large-scale simulations, however, more complex steady …

Active-matter systems operate far from equilibrium because of the continuous energy
injection at the scale of constituent particles. At larger scales, described by coarse-grained …

Abstract Active Brownian particles (ABPs) and Run-and-Tumble particles (RTPs) both self-
propel at fixed speed v along a body-axis u that reorients either through slow angular …

We study the behavior of interacting self-propelled particles, whose self-propulsion speed
decreases with their local density. By combining direct simulations of the microscopic model …

We study measurement-induced phases of free fermion systems with U (1) symmetry.
Following a recent approach developed for Majorana chains, we derive a field theory …
